Furthermore, in the form of fish protein concentrate, the nutritional value contains 75.31% protein, 2.79% fat, 2.14% ash and 6.39% water. This program was implemented in January 2023 at Posyandu Mutiara Kasih and the target of the activities was mothers with children under five in the 16 Ulu sub-district.
