Abstract

ABSTRACT The government's efforts to address malnutrition in children under five include providing supplementary food in the form of biscuits and locally sourced supplementary foods. The purpose of this study is to identify the differences in the nutritional status of malnourished children who receive biscuit-based supplementary food compared to those receiving locally sourced supplementary food in the working area of UPT Puskesmas Bandaran, Pamekasan Regency. This research employed an observational analytic study design with a retrospective approach, conducted from February to May 2024. The population consisted of all undernourished children, totaling 346 children, using a total sampling technique. The statistical significance of the differences in children's nutritional values was tested using the Independent Mann Whitney test, as the data did not follow a normal distribution. The results indicated that, before and after the provision of biscuit-based supplementary food, there was an increase in normal nutritional status to 73.4%, with an average weight gain of 243.1 grams. Meanwhile, the provision of locally sourced supplementary food resulted in a significant increase in normal nutritional status to 99.5%, with an average weight gain of 870.7 grams. The Independent Mann Whitney test showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of < 0.001, indicating a significant difference between the two groups. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the nutritional outcomes between children who receive biscuit-based supplementary food and those receiving locally sourced supplementary food. Locally sourced supplementary food is more effective in improving normal nutritional status compared to biscuit-based supplementary food, due to better acceptance and a more balanced nutritional composition in local ingredients. Future research should focus on in-depth studies of factors affecting the acceptance of locally sourced supplementary food by various target groups, including taste preferences, eating habits, and community perceptions of local supplementary food. Keywords: Malnutrition, Biscuit-Based Supplementary Food, Local Supplementary Food
