Anemia and KEK in pregnant women can increase the risk of low birth weight babies (LBW), premature birth, maternal and infant mortality and stunting (short children). To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to carry out screening and Fe supplementation as a preventive measure to prevent anemia in pregnancy. Activity This community service aims to screen for anemia and KEK pregnant women and women of childbearing age (WUS) as well as the provision of Fe supplementation for prevent iron deficiency anemia. Method: The method used is involving community as a form of empowerment such as measuring LiLA and levels of hemoglobin (Hb), BMI, and distribution of Fe supplementation. Besides that, it is also done education about anemia in pregnancy. The population in this activity is women aged fertile 15-40 years, a total of 42 people in Sambirobyong Hamlet, Pangkur Village, Ngawi Regency. Results: The results show that from 42 women of childbearing age in the hamlet Sambirobyong were screened, there were 3 people (7%) women of childbearing age temporary anemia 1 person (2%) with anemia status plus KEK. From 4 WUS people for age <20 years as many as 2 people (50%) with 1 person condition pregnant with anemia and 1 non-pregnant with anemia. While 2 people (50%) aged >35 years with 1 pregnant condition with anemia + KEK and 1 non-pregnant people with anemia. There is 1 person (2%) experiencing the risk of SEZ.

It is necessary to carry out periodic evaluations every months and giving Fe supplementation to WUS who are still anemic and the risk of KEK and education on the importance of quality nutrition to prevent these complications.

Identification of Subsurface Structures of Geothermal Potential Area in East of Mount Lawu Using The Gravity Method

<p>Information about the eastern side subsurface stones of Mount Lawu regarding geothermal potential is limited. This research was conducted to provide information regarding geothermal potential in those area by using the gravity method. We did a 18 sites of gravity surveys in eastern flank of Mount Lawu where located in Magetan regency, Ngawi regency and Sragen regency, East Java. The principle of this method is to measure the earth's gravity field, then the value of gravity is corrected by some gravity corrections, i.e. height, tide, drift, normal gravity, free-air, Bouguer and terrain corrections. The Complete Bouguer Anomaly (CBA) shows the formation that related to the rock formation in the subsurface of Mount Lawu. Based on CBA modelling we found that in the eastern flank of Mount Lawu contains of tuff and breccia of volcanic rocks, breccia Jabolarangan and tuff Jabolarangan, lava andesite, igneous rock (pumice), and sedimentary rocks in the form of sandstone and clay. We found a fault structure on six tracks of a research area. Otherwise, we estimated that there is a geothermal potential on the southeast side of the research area</p>

Spatial extreme modeling using student t copula approach in Ngawi Regency

Extreme rainfall is an unpredictable phenomenon which causes suffering effect such as flooding. Located on the Equator area, Indonesia results in a high intensity of extreme rainfall. Initial information regarding the patterns, characteristics, and rainfall prediction is needed in order to minimize the negative effect of such phenomenon. A method that can be used to predict extreme rainfall is the spatial extreme value using the copula approach. The copula approach used in this study is student-t copula. The Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution used for the student-t copula with parameter estimation is Pseudo-Maximum Likelihood Estimation (PMLE). The proposed method was applied to model the extreme rainfall atNgawi Regency. An extreme spatial dependency on location is shown by extreme coefficient graphic. The best model that is obtained is based on Akaike Information Criteriation’s (AIC) lowest value. The best model then continues to be used to predict the rainfall intensity return level. The prediction result of the rainfall intensity return level value shows that the maximum value of rainfall intensity increases from year to year in each station.

Will the people of Ngawi be able to solve the stunting problem this year

Stunting in the middle to lower class population in Ngawi Regency only relies on agriculture as their main livelihood. Socio-economic conditions experienced by people living in Ngawi Regency affect the high stunting rate in Ngawi Regency. The majority of the people of Ngawi Regency live their livelihoods and only rely on agriculture, so the poverty rate is still high. Ngawi Regency must be able to look for other opportunities that can support improvements in the economic standard for the community. Families with low socioeconomic status will prioritize the need for foods that contain carbohydrates on the grounds of being full, regardless of the quality of food that supports growth (Priyanti and Syalfina, 2018). The ability of families to meet food needs, both in quantity and nutritional quality, dramatically influences the nutritional status of children. Families with relatively fixed incomes, an underweight prevalence, and a lower prevalence of shortness compared to families with irregular incomes (Ministry of Health, 2010). Mistakes in adopting healthy behavior will affect people's beliefs of the hereditary nature of short stature. This belief can cause parents of children and society at large into a passive attitude, namely only accepting the existing conditions; so they are forced to bear all the consequences of stunting until the child grows up. Whereas if there is no improvement within the 1000 days of the first life period, then the long-term impact will be attached to the child when he grows up because the damage during this critical period cannot be corrected after that period has passed. The belief that there is caused by a lack of messages of health promotion on the prevention of stunting risk that makes communities continue adhering to the social perception blame heredity as the cause of stunting (Liem et al.,2019) The nutritional status of children under five can influence the occurrence of stunting and is influenced by the social environment as indications of socio-economic disparities in society, the existence of differences in the location of residence (ecosystem environment) where they live and develop will produce different behavior. Situations like this can have consequences in patterns and widespread malnutrition problems that lead to stunting child-rearing and implications for the development and quality of life of children (Manongga, 2013). The community is also unable to deal with the environmental conditions in which they live because of the economic limitations they experience. Nutritionists must implement a sensitive nutrition intervention framework to address the problem of stunting. This intervention is carried out through various development activities outside the health sector and contributes to 70% of stunting interventions. To overcome the problem of stunting in socio-economic conditions, local governments can do it by looking for other opportunities that can improve the community’s economic level by increasing market-oriented agribusiness activities (quantity, quality, and continuity (Mangowal, 2013). Resolution of health problems in environmental factors then it can be done by providing and ensuring access to clean water through the PAMSIMAS program (Archda and Tumangger, 2019) Stunting pada penduduk kalangan menengah ke bawah di Kabupaten Ngawi yang hanya mengandalkan pertanian sebagai mata pencaharian utama. Kondisi sosial ekonomi yang dialami oleh masyarakat yang tinggal di Kabupaten Ngawi mempengaruhi tingginya angka stunting di Kabupaten Ngawi. Keluarga dengan sosial ekonomi rendah akan lebih mengutamakan kebutuhan pada makanan yang mengandung karbohidrat dengan alasan hanya supaya kenyang, tanpa melihat kualitas makanan yang menunjang pertumbuhan. Kesalahan dalam mengadopsi perilaku sehat akan akan memperngaruhi keyakinan masyarakat bahwa postur pendek merupakan keturunan. Keyakinan tersebut dapat menyebabkan orangtua anak maupun masyarakat secara luas ke dalam sikap pasif, yaitu hanya menerima kondisi yang ada. Kerangka intervensi gizi sensitif harus dilakukan untuk mengatasi permasalahan stunting. Intervensi ini dilakukan melalui berbagai kegiatan pembangunan di luar sektor kesehatan dan berkontribusi pada 70% Intervensi stunting.
