Agrofood dataset of Brazilian rural communities from Center-West, Northeast and Amazon regions

Changes in the urbanization process have been threatening livelihood diversity in rural communities in Brazil. The main objective of publishing such a dataset is to make available data about the social, economic, and diet aspects of rural communities in different geographical regions in Brazil. The survey was conducted in three macro-regions of Brazil (Northeast, Center-West, and Eastern Amazon) through semi-structured questionnaire interviews in 1012 domestic units to verify details about food patterns, self-consumption farms, and socioeconomic conditions.
