Effects of Food Insecurity on Health Conditions among Women and Children of Orang Asli Kintak in Pengkalan Hulu, Perak, Malaysia

Growing evidences have shown high overlap between food, well-being and forest conservation. Such circumstances are being faced by indigenous communities, in Peninsular Malaysia that are becoming more vulnerable due to health problems related to malnutrition. In this paper, we address effects of food insecurity and health conditions among Orang Kintak mothers and children in Pengkalan Hulu. A total of 35 mothers and 63 children were sampled using quantitative approach. Using (WHO) reference standards, main finding for BMI classification of women shows (20%) underweight, (60%) normal weight and (20%) obesity. Meanwhile, (86%) children were under weight and only (14%) are of normal weight. Understanding the health problems faced by Orang Kintak following unbalanced and nutritional diet are crucial in order for local authorities and communities to take critical action, such as to set up a basic food source production program in order to avoid over dependent on purchased food sources. Next, increase the productivity of human capital by encouraging involvement in the economic, education and health sectors. In general, policy-makers need to take into account indigenous knowledge, challenges and beliefs system when making a strategic decision so that it is beneficial and suitable for the planned strategy to be successful.

Implementation of a Health Communication Strategy in the Success of the COVID-19 Vaccine Program in West Jakarta

The research will focus on the West Jakarta Health Service's Communication Strategy for Disseminating the COVID-19 Vaccine. This research is inspired by the concern that the Jakarta COVID-19 vaccination achievement remains below target, particularly for the elderly, at 64.85 percent for the first dose and 58.44 percent for the second dose in October 2021. There are many obstacles such as hoax news and low public knowledge about vaccines. This research focuses on how to examine the Jakarta Health Office's communication strategy in inviting people to implement COVID-19 immunization. This research will expand on health communication concepts and theories by employing Push, Pull, and Pass communication tactics. A variety of doctors, and health professionals were interviewed for this study. The study results show that the push approach is implemented by opening direct vaccine centres, pulling through persuasively, door prizes, basic food packages, cooperation cross-sectors, and passes with public figure testimonials. The job of Dasawisma cadres is critical because they are the ones who directly persuade the people in simple languages like Javanese and Sundanese. The community also trusts the Dasawisma cadres because they are previously acquainted. The City of West Jakarta achieved 98% of the first dosage of the vaccination, and 65% dosage 2nd in December 2022. Keywords: Health communication, vaccine, communication strategies, COVID-19, Dasawisma.

Territories of the «northern delivery»: new approaches to categorization

Ensuring the sustainability of settlements in the Far North regions is achievable only through a comprehensive set of measures for the procurement and delivery of essential goods (primarily food and fuel) from other areas, known as the «Northern Delivery» The current supply system is marked by inefficiencies that create high risks of delivery disruptions. Enhancing this system requires developing and implementing optimal measures to influence the economic relationships within the «Northern Delivery» framework, alongside determining effective legal regulatory methods. A critical step in this process is the establishment of precise and strictly defined territorial boundaries for implementing these measures. At present, there is no legal formalization of spatial limits for the array of managerial, logistic, and socio-economic processes aimed at ensuring uninterrupted deliveries of goods for the «Northern Delivery» underscoring the importance of this research. The aim of this study is to define the criteria and their quantitative parameters to categorize the regions of the Far North and equivalent areas with limited cargo delivery periods. By synthesizing the work of both domestic and international scholars on the zoning of northern territories and assessing their transport accessibility, as well as utilizing cartographic research methods and focus groups, an algorithm for categorizing the settlements of the Far North regions has been developed. The identified selection criteria include transport accessibility, the presence of stable supply logistics chains, the duration of heating period, and the level of provision with basic food products. This categorization resulted in identifying of three groups of territories based on the supply organization mechanism: critical, supporting, and basic supply. The proposed categorization can be used to determine the spatial limits for legal regulation of the «Northern Delivery» and to develop a specific set of measures to ensure the uninterrupted delivery of essential goods.

The Nazi regime in Lithuania: recovery of agricultural obligations imposed

The purpose of this study is to investigate methods and means of recovery of imposed agricultural obligations. The aim of this paper is to analyse the methods and means for recovery of imposed agricultural obligations in Lithuania, occupied by military forces of Nazi Germany. To achieve the aim, the following objectives have been set: 1) to discuss adaptation of production of agricultural products to meet needs of the war in Lithuania under the Nazi regime; 2) to analyse the methods and means used by occupational Nazi authorities for recovery of agricultural obligations imposed on farmers of Lithuania; 3) to discuss other obligations imposed (other than delivery of agricultural products) on Lithuanian farmers, analyse methods and means for their recovery; 4) submit the exhaustive and reliable statistics on recovery of imposed obligations related to delivery of agricultural products. The topic chosen is a relevant and new one, as this problem has not been presented exhaustively in Lithuanian historiography. First of all, we lack a generalized analysis on the entire Lithuania scale, analysis which must be more detailed, based on archive or reliable statistical data related to practical application of the mechanism of recovery of agricultural obligations (primarily aiming at agricultural products) imposed. This article aims at filling these and other gaps in relevant historiography. During the research the following conclusions have been drawn: 1. In the case of Germany victory in the war, the territories of all Baltic states, including Lithuania, were to be included into the Nazi Reich. During the wartime, the economy of these countries had to serve demands of the Vermacht and meet other Reich needs, irrespective of the interests of the local people and local economies. It had not been planned to create a considerable consumer goods industry. These countries had to be cheap labour sources and base for provision of raw materials, as well as a market for realization of German industry products.2. The essence of the Nazi agricultural policy in the occupied Lithuania meant a unilateral demand to increase production of basic food products and raw materials in order to provide the German troops as well as local residents and Germans in Germany with food products. The Nazi imposed on farmers various obligations related to agricultural products and various equipment (mobilization of horses with carts and harnesses, obligations of manual work and transport, etc.)3. Civil occupational Nazi authorities adapted Lithuanian municipal system to meet their agricultural needs during the wartime. The occupational authorities through threatening the officers of Lithuanian municipal system with penalties and negative consequences related to agriculture and farmers, using the help of Lithuanian officers, managed to recover a huge amount of agriculture products from this country agriculture sector. Whereas Lithuanian municipal officers of higher rank were forced to apply constantly the psychological pressure or even coercion on their own subordinates and colleagues of lower rank.4. In order to recover agricultural obligations fulfilment, the occupants applied both repressive and promoting measures. Among repressive ones, farmer removal from his/her farm should be mentioned as well as requisition of agricultural products, cash penalties, farmers suing with the German Special Court, forcible confining in detention facilities, forced-labour camps or even killing by firing squad. Especially famous for farmers killing by firing squad was H. Wulff, the commissar of Vilnius county district. By killing the farmers, the occupants sought to intimidate the villagers so that they would better fulfil the obligations imposed.5. To perform recovery of fulfilment of imposed agricultural obligations, the following promoting measures used to be applied: issue of ownership documents, granting the possibility of acquisition of industrial goods, etc.6. The Nazi failed to convert Lithuanian farmers into obedient executors of alien will. Due to harsh conditions of the wartime and sabotage of Lithuanian farmers in order to protect their farms from the complete deterioration, occupational government of the Nazi each economic year failed to collect from Lithuanian villages planned agricultural products contingencies irrespective of requisition of the large part of agricultural production of this country.

Diet Adequacy and Food Cost of Food-secure and Insecure Households: Evidence from the 2018 ENNS

Access to a nutritious diet is a challenge that often strains many households with limited resources, thus making food choices that are short of recommended intakes. The study compared the one-day food consumption of households in the Philippines in terms of cost and nutritional adequacy by food security status. It also used the food threshold as a reference value for meeting the minimum cost required to meet basic food needs and satisfy energy and nutrient requirements. Secondary data from the 2018 Expanded National Nutrition Survey done by the Department of Science and Technology–Food and Nutrition Research Institute was used in the analysis. Food-insecure households have significantly higher intakes of energy-giving foods such as rice and other cereals and significantly lower intakes of body-building food such as fish, meat, and poultry than food-secure households. Less than half (45.0%) of the households have food costs equal to or higher than the food threshold. Households whose food cost was equal to or higher than the food threshold were 2.86 times more likely to meet their energy adequacy than those who had lower than threshold food costs. Similarly, households who met the food threshold were 4.61 times more likely to meet their protein, 2.11 times more likely to meet their vitamin A, and 1.87 times more likely to meet their iron adequacies, holding other variables constant. The study highlights the importance of economic access to food, especially among food-insecure households. This could be through making food more affordable and reducing physical barriers to food to be more accessible to poor communities or providing livelihood opportunities to increase their means to acquire food.

Biochemical value of table grape varieties when grown in the Northern Steppe of Ukraine

The study of the possibilities of using the existing biodiversity of table grape varieties to meet the usefulness of the human diet is a key component of improving the existing cultivation of fruit products within the framework of modern agricultural development strategies. The purpose of the study was to establish the possibilities of meeting the needs of the population for valuable nutritional elements based on traditional table grape varieties, which are mainly introduced in the region at the level of small farms and household plots. Five table grape varieties – Arcadia, Nadezhda AZOS, Preobrazhenie, Rumeyka, Dubovsky pink – were investigated for the content of calcium, phosphorus, sulphur, magnesium, potassium, zinc, copper, selenium, manganese, glucose, dietary fibre, vitamins A, C, E, PP, and the dependence on the factors of the year and variety, their interaction, and the classifying ability of features in the space of canonical functions were calculated. The presence of minerals was analysed by atomic emission spectrometry, glucose – by sugar meter, dietary fibre – by enzymatic gravimetric method, vitamins – by fluorometric method, and vitamin C – by titrometric analysis. The possibilities of traditional table grape varieties in meeting the needs for basic valuable food elements are shown and a conclusion is made about the possibilities of selecting appropriate forms, which in the complex are quite capable of meeting modern requirements in this aspect of agricultural development. A predominantly low variability of the studied traits was revealed, which indicates the good reproducibility of the obtained result and the predominant influence of the genotype on the development of the corresponding trait in conditions of contrasting environmental characteristics of years. It was found that improvement in only one of the signs – the content of vitamin PP – is problematic. The low differentiating ability of varieties of the Dubovsky pink, Preobrazhenie, and Rumeyka group leads to the need for further clarification of the ability of only the first of the varieties to be a component in the proposed complex. It is recommended to grow a complex of varieties Nadezhda AZOS and Dubovsky pink

Early initiation of breastfeeding and associated factors among post-natal mothers in selected healthcare sectors, Rohtas, Bihar

Background: Breastfeeding is the best natural feeding and breast milk is the best milk. The basic food of an infant is the mother’s milk. The study aimed to determine the estimated time of breastfeeding initiation among normal delivery mothers, identify the contribution factor for delayed initiation of breastfeeding among normal delivery mothers, and to find out the association between the selected demographic variables and initiation timing of breastfeeding. Methods: The present study constituted a cross-sectional research design, involving 100 postnatal mothers from selected healthcare centers. A purposive sampling technique was employed to select the participants, and a semi-structured questionnaire was utilized to collect the data. The data was gathered through a self-administered questionnaire. Subsequently, inferential statistics, such as chi-square, were applied to determine the objective and hypothesis of the study. Results: In the research, it was found that 56% of mothers-initiated breastfeeding within the first hour after giving birth. Furthermore, 30% of mothers-initiated breastfeeding between 1 and 24 hours, and 14% initiated breastfeeding 24 hours after giving birth. The study also revealed a categorical association (as determined via chi-square test, p value <0.005) between the timing of breastfeeding and certain socio-demographic factors, such as the occupational status of mothers (χ2=11.65, p value <0.005), their educational level (χ2=17.7, p value <0.005), and the family’s monthly income (χ2=13.7, p value <0.005). Conclusions: Adopting breastfeeding-friendly policies at scale and utilizing monitoring data to increase accountability and improve service delivery can significantly reduce delayed breastfeeding initiation.

The impact of forage condition on household food security in northern Kenya and southern Ethiopia

We studied the causal link between forage condition and food security in northern Kenya and southern Ethiopia and probed the mechanisms through which the effects occur. The study utilized weekly panel survey data collected over a period of 94 weeks (March 2021–December 2022) from drought-prone pastoral regions and estimated two-stage least squares instrumental variables regression to assess causal impacts. We found that an increase in the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) – our proxy for forage condition – by 10% significantly reduced the likelihood of a household experiencing food insecurity by 12 percentage points. The main mechanisms through which improved forage condition increased food security were livestock productivity enhancement, reduced prices of basic food commodities (cereals, legumes, and vegetables), and utilization of better coping strategies by households. These findings suggest the need for interventions and initiatives aimed at boosting livestock productivity and reducing vulnerability to drought-induced poor forage conditions. Efforts focused on the monitoring of forage conditions and supporting market development for livestock feed are important for addressing the adverse impacts of drought and deteriorating forage conditions in the horn of Africa. Furthermore, the monitoring of drought conditions and shocks using high-frequency data has the potential for providing early warning and informing anticipatory action.

Association of breakfast skipping on nutrient intake and adiposity in Malaysian children: Findings from SEANUTS II

Malaysian children often skip breakfast, an important meal providing essential nutrients for optimal growth and maintaining proper nutritional status. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the associations between breakfast skipping with dietary intake, diet quality, and adiposity indicators among primary schoolchildren aged 6.0–12.9 years. This study involved 1383 children from the South East Asian Nutrition Surveys (SEANUTS II) Malaysia. Information collected through questionnaires included sociodemography and breakfast consumption, defined as the first meal before noon. Breakfast skipping was identified as skipping breakfast at least once a week. Anthropometric measures, including height, body weight, and waist circumference, as well as percentage of body fat, were collected. Body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-height ratio were calculated, and BMI-for-age-z-scores was determined using WHO (2007) growth reference. A one-day 24-hour dietary recall was employed to assess dietary intake, and diet quality was analyzed using Malaysian Healthy Eating Index. Binary logistic regression was applied to examine relationship between breakfast skipping on diet quality and adiposity indicators. Over one-third (36.0%) of children skipped breakfast at least once a week, resulting in lower intakes of energy, nutrients, cereals/grains, vegetables, and milk/dairy products, though not affecting total diet quality score. Breakfast skipping was associated with higher odds of overweight/obesity (aOR 2.04, 95%CI: 1.52–2.76) and central obesity (aOR 1.87, 95%CI 1.34–2.61). In conclusion, primary schoolchildren in Peninsular Malaysia who skipped breakfast tended to have lower consumption of nutrients and specific basic food groups, as well as increased body fat. This study highlights the importance of continuing to educate parents and children about healthy eating habits, especially the need to adhere to dietary recommendations, with an emphasis on breakfast consumption.
