Wild Food Products and Household Food Security, transcribed from the thesis "Use of Wild Food Products in Relation to Household Food Security in Nepal from Gender Perspective" encompasses a detail case study on buffer zones of Shivapuri National Park and Parsa Wildlife Reserve in Nepal, where crop depredation by wild animals has been playing a prominent role in aggravating the scenario of food insecurity in the rural areas. The research investigates further into gender, income, livelihood, management practice of forest resources and its use in different aspects such as land size, women’s participation in conservation, wildlife damage, daily and annual consumption of cultivated and wild food, nutritional status of women, children and chemical analysis of food. The study furthermore emphasizes on property ownership right such as land, women responsibility in household food security and women status in the patriarchal Nepalese society.
