The increasing prevalence of malnutrition in sub-Saharan Africa in the midst of growing access and use of Information and Communication Technologies in developing countries, calls for the need to understand the link between information infrastructure and nutritious diets intake in sub-Saharan Africa. We investigate the impacts of internet café, ICT centre and community radio stations on household nutritious diets intake using the marginal treatment effects (MTE) framework, the principal stratification approach, and data from the Ghana Living Standards Survey rounds 6 and 7. The study revealed that farm households appear to benefit more than nonfarm households from the information infrastructure. The effect of internet café on nutritious diets intake appears to be lower in magnitudes compared to the effects of the other information infrastructure. We also show that the nature of the gains from the infrastructure depends on the infrastructure type, and that differences in gains from information infrastructure are due to worse nutritious diets intake without the infrastructure. Access to extension advice, favourable market prices and farm output and revenue are the important impact mechanisms of the infrastructure. Finally, the study shows that providing infrastructure support such as electricity increases nutritious diets intake, per household shifted.
