Description
Summary:Discussion: The determinants of stunting in under-five children in South Lampung Regency are significantly influenced by child-specific factors, maternal conditions, and households with agricultural household livelihoods. To address stunting, it is essential to enhance maternal and child health programs and implement targeted nutritional interventions, particularly for agricultural households with farming fathers. Future research should investigate the impact of agricultural practices on child nutrition and assess the efficacy of interventions across various socioeconomic settings. Longitudinal studies are crucial for evaluating and refining stunting prevention strategies, ultimately contributing to the achievement of Indonesia Emas 2045.
