Growth monitoring program for children: Trial for reducing poverty in rural Cambodia

参与生长监测项目的乡村志愿者和家长发现，他们的大多数孩子都患有慢性营养不良。他们知道他们的孩子因营养不良而患上一些传染病。他们还发现，孩子们喜欢吃试验托儿所食品计划中的食物，营养食品可以便宜，容易制备。然而，由于缺乏这样的习俗，使之成为日常习惯可能并不容易。一些生计记录项目的结果表明，如果农民有足够的作物收成，他们可以自给自足，并从出售产品中获得现金收入。他们足够自给自足，家庭成员能够保持健康，孩子们健康地增加体重。反馈会议的与会者对方案取得的成果很感兴趣。农业生产是改善儿童健康和营养的关键。

Village volunteers and parents who participated in the growth monitoring program found that most of their children develop chronically malnourished. They understood that their children got some of infectious diseases from malnutrition. They also found that children enjoyed eating foods in the trial nursery foods program and that nutrition foods could be cheaply and easily prepared. However, due to the lack of such customs, it may not be easy to make it into a daily habit.Some of the results of the livelihood record programs showed that if the farmers had enough crop harvest, they were self-sufficient and had cash income from selling their products. They are self-sufficient enough that family members were able to maintain health and children gain the weight healthily. The participants of the feedback meeting were interested in the results obtained from the programs. Agricultural production held the key to improving the health and nutrition of the children.
