Abstract

We present cross-sectional data from 558 households in South Benin collected in October 2024. Using a multistage sampling approach, the survey was implemented in three municipalities: Kpomassè, Torri-bossito, and Zè, covering 56 villages. Women were the targeted respondents. We relied on computer-assisted and imagery-assisted personal interviews to collect data on seven modules, including the Abbreviated Women’s Empowerment in Agriculture Index (A-WEAI), household-level crop diversification, and nutrition (dietary diversity, the Food Insecurity Experience Scale, and anthropometric measures). The participants' names, telephone numbers, and geo coordinates were removed to comply with ethics requirements and the informed consent signed by the participants.
