Abstract: The objective of this work was to analyze the determinants of household consumption of fish in Brazil. Microdata from POF 2017-2018 were used. Specifically, we sought to identify how fish consumption is influenced by variables related to location and to household habits and characteristics, in general, and by income groups. For the estimation, the Probit econometric model was used. Altogether, 2289 products were selected and distributed among 9 different categories, 5 of them related to fish and 4 related to proteins listed as possible substitutes. The results show that living in the rural area, coastal regions, or in the North region contributes positively to the acquisition of fish, which indicates the importance of supply factors. The level of education of the person responsible for the household had no significant effect on the propensity to consume. The presence of children and adolescents in households and the increase in income positively affected the propensity to consume.
