Three-quarters of the poor of the world are farmers and live in rural areas subject to environmental risks and loss of agrobiodiversity. These aspects violate local and global food security, accentuating malnutrition, chronic diseases and occupational health problems, which, in turn, reduce job performance, productivity, income and perpetuate poverty. In this context, holistic tools such as bioeconomic models could help us understand the impact that the implementation of an agrobiodiversity conservation policy would have on production and food security; however, no models have been found that consider agrobiodiversity, the economic behavior of subsistence farmers and food security simultaneously. For this reason, this study set out to evaluate the impact of the conservation of the agrobiodiversity of the quenopodeáceas on the production and food security of the quinoa producers of Puno-Perú, through the identification, adaptation and application of a Farm Household Bioeconomic Model (FHBM). For this, i) 461 surveys were applied to a representative sample of Subsistence Farmer Households (HA_Subs) that produce quinoa in Puno-Peru, ii) HA_Subs were classified in terms of food security and agrobiodiversity indicators, and then the statistical association between these groups was determined and its regional distribution, iii) An FHBM was identified, adapted and applied. To identify the model, a systematic literature review was carried out. For adaptation, a conceptual model of agrobiodiversity was proposed and integrated. Finally, food scenarios were simulated for the conservation of agrobiodiversity and the impacts on indicators of production (supply), security (selfconsumption, demand and income) and poverty. The results show positive impacts of agrobiodiversity conservation on economic (production), social (food security), and ecological (natural biodiversity) dimensions; although, these depend on the characteristics of the basal agrobiodiversity of the farms, the agricultural practices, the level of selfconsumption and the organization of the farm. Therefore, the results allow us to identify the provinces where the implementation of an agrobiodiversity conservation policy would generate positive impacts on local and global food security and capitalize on the opportunities for their conservation. The proposal seeks to define the scope of the implementation of this policy in the Department of Puno-Peru to make it viable, efficient and cost-effective, and thus contribute to the problems that arise in SDGs 1 (poverty), SDGs 2 (security food) and SDGs 15 (protection of biodiversity) of the 2030 Agenda.
