| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the international development context, nutritional issues are one of the highest-priority global challenges. This study examined excess or deficiency of nutrients by comparing nutritional demand and nutritional supply at the national level. It also estimated the population prevalence of inadequate nutrient intake taking its distribution into account. Nutrient supply was estimated from the food supply data of FAO’s food balance sheet. The results from Madagascar showed that several nutrients such as Calcium or Vitamin A were not sufficient. The source of each nutrient was not adequately balanced such as low level of animal food products supply, hence insufficient amino acid score or low absorption rate of micronutrient were implied.
