“…Karakteristik sosial demografi dan ekonomi rumah tangga akan memengaruhi capaian MAD. Berbagai studi di Indonesia maupun beberapa negara lainnya menunjukkan bahwa aspek perekonomian rumah tangga yang diukur melalui indeks kekayaan akan memengaruhi MAD (Akalu et al, 2021;Bappenas RI, 2018;Puspitasari & Gayatri, 2020;Zebadia et al, 2021a). Oleh karena itu, adanya keberadaan penduduk miskin dapat berpengaruh terhadap penurunan pendapatan dan daya beli pangan sehingga berdampak pada kuantitas dan kualitas konsumsi pangan rumah tangga yang memiliki anak usia 6-23 bulan.…”

Indonesia is one of the countries with high nutritional problems caused by inadequate feeding practices. A minimum acceptable diet (MAD) is used to assess feeding practices in children with low achievement (53,6%) aged 6-23 months. This study aimed to determine the factors influencing MAD in children aged 6-23 months in Indonesia. This study uses a cross-sectional study design to use secondary data from the 2017 IDHS. The subjects in this study were 4.783 children aged 6-23 months. Data were collected using the 2017 IDHS and WHO UNICEF 2010 questionnaires in assessing feeding practices. Statistical tests used were Chi-square, Spearman, and Multiple logistic regression. This study showed that the prevalence of MAD was 53.7%. Factors influencing MAD were the location of residence (p= 0,001), wealth index (p<0,001), mother's occupation (p= 0,007), father's education level (p= 0,022), mother's education (p= 0,003), media exposure (p= 0,012), geographic area (p<0,05), child's age (p<0,001), and birth order (p<0,05). The dominant factor influencing MAD is the education level of mothers who do not attend school. In conclusion, there is an influence between socio-demographic and economic characteristics and the characteristics of children with MAD in Indonesia.

“…10, 17 Our study also shows a consistence result with previous study in Indonesia using 6-23 months population showing a significant association between wealth index and MDD. 9 Children who lived in the higher wealth index quintile had better privilege to have more diverse foods due to wider food options and bigger buying power of the family. Access to internet was increasingly used as the proxy indicator to describe access to information.…”

“…The result of the study shows that wealth index, number of children, assets ownership, mother's working status, and place of residence were associated with MDD. 9 Previous study in Tanzania shows that children in younger age (6-11 months old), limited access to media, and poor economic status were associated with inappropriate feeding practice. 10 Better understanding on determinants of MDD among 6-11 months is needed to increase MDD practices and to prevent malnutrition.…”

Background and purpose: The indicators to assess food diversity in complementary feeding is minimum dietary diversity (MDD). In 2017, the proportion of MDD among 6-11-month-old children in Indonesia was 33.8%, which was the lowest among other age group and below the national rate. This study aims to explore factors associated with MDD among 6-11-month-old children in IndonesiaMethods: This study was a secondary data analysis of the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS), a cross-sectional study involving 17,848 children across all provinces in Indonesia. The final samples included in this analysis were 1,593 children aged 6-11-month-old. Variables analyzed were parent’s education level, access to information, parent’s occupation, wealth index, and access to health facilities. Logistic regression model was applied to identify factors associated with MDD.Results: The proportion of MDD in this study was 35.1%. The highest food groups that were consumed were staple food, vitamin-A rich fruits and vegetables, and breastmilk. The final model showed factors which correlated significantly with complementary feeding practices that met MDD requirement were wealth index categorized as richer (OR=1.72; 95%CI: 1.16-2.55; p=0.007), wealth index categorized as richest (OR=2.42; 95%CI: 1.58-3.68; p<0.001) and using internet almost every day (OR=1.42; 95%CI: 1.05-1.91; p=0.023).Conclusion: Wealth index and internet use were independently associated with MDD. Online media should be considered as channel to spread information of complementary feeding diversity to children, while socio-economic factor which associated to food accessibility should be addressed by involving beyond health sector.

“…Infant nutrition is essential for children's health and development during childhood and also during adolescence and adulthood [9]. Prior to the age of two, optimal breastfeeding and sufficient supplementary feeding habits for infants and young children are also protective factors against stunting and wasting [10,11].…”

“…In addition, 25.9% of children did not eat more than 3-4 types of complementary foods (breast milk, formula, cheese/yogurt, or other dairy products), 44.5% of children did not eat according to the minimum frequency according to their age, and 57.7% of children aged 6-23 months did not receive all three variations of these infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices. Suboptimal feeding practices and a high prevalence of underweight, wasting, and stunting were found among children aged 6-23 months [11,13]. A study in Aceh showed that of 39% of children aged 6-23 months who received exclusive breastfeeding, only 61% received long-term breastfeeding, and 50% received timely complementary feeding.…”

Background Stunting among children under five years of age is among the highest in Indonesia. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between food consumption diversity and nutritional status among children aged 6–23 months in Indonesia. Methods The data used came from the results of the 2018 Basic Health Research. The main independent variable was the diversity of food consumption. Control variables included breastfeeding practices and demographic and socioeconomic factors. Using ordinal logistic regression, the role of food consumption diversity in influencing nutritional status was examined after controlling for breastfeeding practices and demographic and socioeconomic factors. Results The results of the study showed that the diversity of food consumption (AOR = 1.15; 95%CI: 1.07–1.24) significantly and statistically influenced nutritional status of children age 6–23 months in Indonesia even after controlling for the effects of breastfeeding practices and demographic and socioeconomic factors. Higher odds of having normal nutritional status compared to being stunted or severely stunted was associated with consuming food according to the dietary diversity. Higher odds of having normal nutritional status compared to being stunted or severely stunted was also significantly and statistically associated with being ever breastfed (AOR = 1.33; 95%CI: 1.22–1.46), aged 6–11 months (AOR = 3.07; 95%CI: 2.79–3.38), female (AOR = 1.35; 95%CI: 1.25–1.46), children of non-working mothers (AOR = 1.12; 95%CI: 1.04–1.21), children of higher educated mothers (AOR = 1.50; 95%CI: 1.30–1.72), children from higher wealth quintile households (AOR = 1.65; 95%CI: 1.44–1.85), children from smaller size family (AOR = 1.07; 95%CI: 1.05–1.10), and urban children (AOR = 1.16; 95%CI:1.08–1.25). Conclusion A profound percentage of children aged 6–23 months in Indonesia experienced stunting and severely stunting. Children who did not receive minimum dietary diversity were more likely to suffer from stunting. The findings from this study suggest that to ensure the achievement of national goal of preventing stunting and sustainable development goal of ending all forms of malnutrition in Indonesia, the strategy should promote the fulfillment of minimum food consumption diversity.
