英文文献摘要：
This study examines how the performance of the agricultural sector can be enhanced in the long-run through institutional framework thereby ensuring food security in Nigeria. It employs the ARDL (Autoregressive Distributed Lag) with data from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) statistical bulletin, Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), World Development Indicators (WDI), and World Governance Indicators (WDI). Food security is used as the dependent variable proxied by the number of the people undernourished under the stability dimension; agricultural sector performance and institutional framework as the independent variables, while population is a control variable. Two agricultural variables (agriculture production and agriculture credit) are employed with six variables of institutional framework. The findings show that in the long-run, agriculture production and agriculture credit (agriculture variables) will increase food security by reducing the number of people undernourished by 2% and 18%, respectively. In terms of institutional framework; political stability and absence of violence and rule of law increase food security by reducing undernourishment by approximately 69% and 29%, respectively; control of corruption and voice and accountability tends to reduce food security by increasing the number of the people undernourished by 74%, 51% and 63% respectively. Therefore, the study concludes by recommending, among others, that the Nigerian institutional framework should be improved (especially the control of corruption) in addressing the challenges in the implementation of food security programmes and ensuring timely distribution of food resources.
本研究探讨了如何通过制度框架长期提高农业部门的绩效，从而确保尼日利亚的粮食安全。它采用ARDL(自回归分布滞后)，数据来自尼日利亚中央银行(CBN)统计公报、粮食和农业组织(FAO)、世界发展指标(WDI)和世界治理指标(WDI)。以粮食安全为因变量，在稳定维度下以营养不良人数为代表;农业部门绩效和制度框架为自变量，人口为控制变量。采用两个农业变量(农业生产和农业信贷)和六个制度框架变量。研究结果表明，从长期来看，农业生产和农业信贷(农业变量)将分别通过减少2%和18%的营养不良人口来提高粮食安全。在体制框架方面;政治稳定、没有暴力和法治分别将营养不良减少约69%和29%，从而提高粮食安全;对腐败的控制以及对话语权和问责制往往会降低粮食安全，因为它们使营养不良的人数分别增加了74%、51%和63%。因此，该研究的结论是，除其他外，尼日利亚的体制框架应得到改善(特别是腐败的控制)，以应对执行粮食安全方案和确保及时分配粮食资源方面的挑战。
