Abstract

When Indonesia was combating child undernutrition, overnutrition emerged which made the situation more complex. In fact, dwelling area like rural versus urban is one of the direct determi- nants which play a big role in shaping dietary habits and nutritional status in population. However, there is a lack of data that shows dieteray habits between urban and rural areas in Indonesia. This study aims to compare the dietary habits and nutritional status between children living in urban and rural areas in Bogor. This study was conducted using the cross sectional method with 77 urban and 65 rural children aged 9-12 years old in Bogor. Nutritional status was assessed by anthropometric measurements, i.e height for age Z-score and IMT for age Z-score. Dietary habit data were obtained by interviewing subjects using validated questionnaire and 3x24 hours food recall. The results showed that urban children had greater risk of being overweight and children living in rural areas had higher risk of being stunted. Children in urban areas showed better dietary habits indicated by greater number of children with regular consumption of breakfast, meat, dairy, and fruits. In conclusion, each area in Bogor showed different malnutrition issue, where higher incident stunting was found in rural area and higher incident of overweight was found in urban area. Therefore, different intervention seems urgent to be elaborated to alleviate the dual malnutrition among children.

农村和城市地区学童的饮食习惯和营养状况：来自印度尼西亚茂物的比较研究

当印度尼西亚与儿童营养不良作斗争时，出现了营养过剩，使情况更加复杂。事实上，农村与城市这样的居住区域是直接决定因素之一，它在塑造人口的饮食习惯和营养状况方面发挥着重要作用。然而，缺乏显示印度尼西亚城市和农村地区饮食习惯的数据。本研究旨在比较茂物城市和农村儿童的饮食习惯和营养状况。本研究采用横断面方法对茂物市77名城市儿童和65名9-12岁的农村儿童进行了研究。通过人体测量来评估营养状况，即身高为年龄z分数，IMT为年龄z分数。饮食习惯数据采用有效问卷和3 × 24小时食物回忆法进行访谈。结果显示，城市儿童超重的风险更高，农村儿童发育迟缓的风险更高。城市地区的儿童表现出更好的饮食习惯，更多的儿童经常食用早餐、肉类、乳制品和水果。综上所述，茂物各地区存在不同的营养不良问题，农村地区发育迟缓发生率较高，城市地区超重发生率较高。因此，迫切需要制定不同的干预措施来缓解儿童的双重营养不良。

期刊介绍： Future of Food: Journal on Food, Agriculture & Society (FOFJ) was founded in 2012 in order to provide a platform for scientific debate on agriculture and food-related themes with the goal of a sustainable future for people and planet. The journal is aimed at contributing to debates on sustainable food production and consumption, and is most interested in tackling the most important challenges to the global agri-food system, such as hunger and malnutrition, depletion of natural resources, climate change, threats to biodiversity, and inequity in the agrarian sphere. The journal understands itself as a multi-disciplinary effort and is especially designed to foster interaction between different disciplines and approaches. Hence it invites inputs from social and natural sciences, arts and humanities, academics and scholar-activists, civil society and agroecology practitioners. The journal is attempting to reach its goal by providing open access to readers and allowing contributions without submission fees or publication fees.

The Editorial Board is made up by a range of international experts who devote time and energy to peer review and its members deserve gratitude and recognition for their excellent work. All communication between authors, editors, reviewers and editorial staff is conducted in an atmosphere of mutual respect. The journal will not tolerate racism, religious, ethnic and national chauvinism, misogynous and hate language and reserves the right to bar anyone who disrespects these principles from using the platform.
