Abstract

The 2011 Ethiopian National Food Consumption Survey (FCS) was conducted to provide evidence for the National Food Fortification Program. The survey collected nationally and regionally representative cross-sectional Food Consumption Survey among 8424 households (HH) across nine regions and two city administrations. In most HH, one child of 6-35 months, and a woman of 15-45 years were interviewed for selected socio-demographic characteristics, recent morbidity, anthropometry, and single 24-hour dietary recall, including recipes, food sources, and methods of preparation. The data the study were managed and analyzed by CSPro4.0 and SPSS software. The results of the survey showed that the following basic findings. First, the proportion of children, women, and men who reported consuming food that contained any purchased wheat flour (thus, potentially fortifiable) in the previous 24 hours are 28 percent of children and 20 percent of women nationally, and 67 percent of children, 52 percent of women, 47 percent of men living in urban areas and (2) the consumption of oil was much higher, with 45 percent and 50 percent of children and women nationally respectively, and 69 percent, 72 percent and 77 percent of children, women, and men living in urban areas. The study suggests that evidence-based justification is required in order to identify appropriate food vehicles and fortify any products for the general population.

Description

This dataset is generated by a national representative cross-sectional national food consumption survey conducted in nine regions and two city administrations of Ethiopia between June and September 2011. The dataset captures household and socioeconomic characteristics such as income, language, size, education level, region, woreda, zone, kebele, sub-city, and the town of woman, wealth Index quintiles, energy intake (KCAL), protein intake, fat intake, mineral intake (iron, zinc, Calcium), vitamin Intake (A, C), Salt and Oil intake, and day of the week. In addition to that, the data was collected by trained survey teams using a pre-tested questionnaire by interviewing adult females 15-45 years, Anthropometric measurements to assess the nutritional status of women, and individual 24-hour dietary recall of closest female caregiver or relative 15-45 years of age. Thus, the data are being used to estimate macronutrient and micronutrient intake among women and to develop the National Food Consumption Survey and a number of other diet-related strategies and programs at the national and regional levels for the target groups (women).
