Can drought and climate variation impact the food and nutritional security of farming families in Brazil's semi-arid region? This article investigates the dietary habits of twenty-one farming families in the municipality of Medina, in the Jequitinhonha Valley, during the great drought of 2011/2019 using ethnographic techniques such as participant observation and Spearman correlation statistical tests (rho). We found that there were no significant changes in dietary habits during the drought, and that household income and production for self-consumption ensured food stability and quality. Farming families in Medina were seen to form an important sector for food demand in the local market. This situation also resulted in greater sensitivity to food price variations and public spending on social cash transfer programs related to the food security status of the studied families
