"Malnutrisi adalah salah satu penyebab utama kematian anak-anak di seluruh dunia. Salah satu penyebab gizi buruk yang sering diabaikan adalah kenaikan harga makanan yang dikenal dengan inflasi makanan. Penelitian ini menggunakan Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) gelombang 3 dan 4, dengan mengeksplorasi dampak inflasi makanan terhadap gizi anak dalam pengukuran antropometri z-scores yaitu stunting, wasting, dan underweight pada anak usia 0-35 bulan. Dengan menggunakan regresi OLS, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan inflasi makanan sebesar 1% menurunkan z-scores height-for-age yang meningkatkan risiko stunting. Di sisi lain, z-scores weight-for-height dan weight-for-age yang menentukan wasting dan underweight ditemukan tidak sensitif terhadap inflasi makanan.

Malnutrition is one of the primary causes of death of children around the world. One of the overlooked causes of malnutrition is an increase in food prices, known as food inflation. This study utilizes the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) waves 3 and 4, by exploring the impacts of food inflation on the nutritional outcomes of children in the anthropometrics measurement of z-scores, namely stunting, wasting, and being underweight among children aged 0-35 months old. With OLS regression, the result reveals that an increase of 1% in food inflation decreases the height-for-age z-scores, which increases the risk of stunting. On the other hand, weight-for-height and weight-for-age z-scores that determine wasting and underweight were found to be insensitive to food inflation."

"This book will review the current status of the agriculture and agri-food sector in regard to green processing and provide strategies that can be used by the sector to enhance the use of environmentally-friendly technologies for production, processing. The book will look at the full spectrum from farm to fork beginning with chapters on life cycle analysis and environmental impact assessment of different agri-food sectors. This will be followed by reviews of current and novel on-farm practices that are more environmentally-friendly, technologies for food processing that reduce chemical and energy use and emissions as well as novel analytical techniques for R&D and QA which reduce solvent, chemical and energy consumption. Technologies for waste treatment, "reducing, reusing, recycling", and better water and energy stewardship will be reviewed. In addition, the last section of the book will attempt to look at technologies and processes that reduce the generation of process-induced toxins (e.g., trans fats, acrylamide, D-amino acids) and will address consumer perceptions about current and emerging technologies available to tackle these processing and environmental issues."

"ABSTRACTMost poverty prevalence in developing countries is found among people living in rural areas, which depend on agricultural activities as their main source of livelihood (Suryana, 1992, Kuhonta, 1986). This study assessed the overall condition of the rural community in Pasaman (Jambak and Sarik village) and Sawahlunto/Sijunjung (SP I and SP IV village) district regarding to the poverty and nutritional situation by using an adapted Rapid Rural assessment method which was called RAPID: Rapid Nutritional Assessment for Community Based Poverty Alleviation Projects in Developing Countries, developed by GTZ. The method consists of interviewing key persons, focus group discussion, observation and height measurement of school children (6-9 years old). Other method to diagnose and analyze the nutritional situation of risk group is a nutritional survey. Interview and anthropometrics measurement of fewer than five children and the mother were done in this method. A poor state of nutrition and health also leads to lower productivity and reduces the availability of food at the household level, which now forms a vicious cycle. The availability of food can describe the food security status of the household. This study also attempted to look into the main problems of food security on rural community by using food security questionnaire developed by SEARCA (South East Asian Regional Center for Agriculture). The result of interviewing the mothers by this method revealed that current food security status in Jambak and Sarik was better than SP I and SP IV while SP IV was worse than SP I. The similar result was found by other two methods. RAPID method described the overall condition of the study area in a short time. This method also collected preliminary information on the nature and importance of poverty and nutritional problem, and supply of the resources of the study area. However this method insufficient to describe the relationship between nutritional problem and its determinant factor. Baseline survey gave the extent of the nutritional problem in the area, nevertheless this method needed some resources; fund, personnel, equipments and time. Food security method assessed the extent of food security problems in the area, however in this study, it was proved that the questionnaire was not fully applicable, therefore further analyses based on SEARCA method could not be completely applied."
