“…Notably, household characteristics, such as the Edu 1 and Edu 2 groups, are all significant for both market participation and the consumption level (Bhandari & Smith, ) compared to the Edu 3 group. Families tend to consume more powdered milk as the level of education of the householder increases.…”

The objective of this study is to explore the determinants of urban at-home consumption demand for powdered milk in Guangdong province from 2007 to 2009. A double-hurdle model is used in this analysis based on survey data. The data include 8188 household distributed in 15 cities and prefectures of Guangdong province. Major findings show that the income growth of urban household, an increase in the level of education of the householder, and the different age groups within the household all have positive effects on urban at-home consumption demand for powdered milk. The prices of powdered milk have negative effects on milk consumption. Families in the Pearl River Delta consume more powdered milk than families in the other regions. The powdered milk consumption has not been significantly affected by the 2008 Chinese melamine tainted milk scandal.

“…Based on a survey of 150 households in Nanjing, China, Veeck and Veeck () concluded that young, single male adult, and above average income consumers were more likely to purchase Western convenience foods. In addition, Bhandari and Smith () and Jussaume () demonstrated that people with higher incomes were more likely to purchase high‐quality meat and fresh fruits. The frequency of dining out and the consumption of snack foods also accounted for the increasing consumption of Western convenience foods in China.…”

Opportunities for Western Food Products in China: The Case of Orange Juice Demand

et al. 2016

China's ever increasing demand for agricultural products provides new opportunities for both domestic and foreign food companies. With Western‐style products becoming increasingly popular across China, more information is needed to better evaluate the future market opportunities of different juice products. In this regard, we investigate Chinese consumer perception, knowledge, and willingness‐to‐pay for different types of orange juice products. Results show that Chinese consumers have limited knowledge of juice products, especially for Western‐style juices. Although consumers are willing to pay more for products with higher juice content, 10% orange juice drink will probably continue to dominate the orange juice product market in China unless there is a significant drop in the price of 100% not from concentrate orange juice. Consumers with better knowledge of juice products, females, and those with higher income are more likely to be willing to pay more for 100% not from concentrate orange juice.

“…Una investigación transversal que utilizó encuestas DHS de sesenta y tres países se identificó como los determinantes subyacentes más importantes además de la educación de la mujer, el estado de la mujer relativo al varón, la disponibilidad per capita de alimento y el saneamiento (Smith y Haddad, 1990). El grado de educación en la madre o cuidadora es determinante del estado nutricional (Delpeuch et al, 2000), (Bhandari y Smith, 2000) del niño, aunque el efecto de la educación de la madre está muy influenciado por el nivel socioeconómico (Bellessa, 2005). En zonas con peores condiciones de agua y saneamiento se puede observar que los niños presentan una talla más baja y más episodios de diarrea que los que tienen mejores condiciones (Checkley, 2004) y (Merchant et al, 2003).…”

Se realizó un sub-análisis utilizando datos de la ENDES 2000, y no otras que tienen datos más actuales, debido al tamaño y diseño muestral. Se seleccionaron las variables significativas que entraron en el modelo multivariado (análisis bivariados, con una significancia de 10%). Los sujetos analizados fueron menores de tres años, según los datos recogidos en la ENDES 2000. La prevalencia de retraso de crecimiento en niños menores de tres años es el 21,7%. Los determinantes son diferentes en cada región natural, y los más importantes en todos los ámbitos fueron: educación de la madre, controles de crecimiento de los niños, número de controles pre-natales, lugar del parto, peso al nacer del niño y el número de hijos vivos de la madre. Se concluye que la desnutrición crónica en niños menores de tres años tiene particularidades en cada región, por lo que es importante plantear la resolución este problema nutricional de diferentes maneras. Adicional a las acciones actuales, es necesario incluir mejoras en la condición de la mujer.
