Climate change, industrialization, environmental change and increasing urbanization all together have impacted food products, increasing food consumption and in many cases food insecurity. Under such circumstances emerging challenges, nutrition shortages as well as population migration are widely observed within the dry lands of the developing world with special reference to Asia. In recent years, these topics have come to the center of attention of policymakers, and the community of scholars studying these phenomena. The above interwoven phenomena have largely affected food accessibility in many parts of Asia. As a result of such a scenario, shortage of food is widely observed, and prices constantly rise. Such a situation increases poverty and lower purchasing power for an increasing number of people. To remedy the crisis, these countries need effective policies with respect to agriculture, environmental management, settlements, urbanization, and population dynamics.

Extrusion is nowadays a technological procedure that allows the processing of a very large quantity of final products. These may be for human, animal or industrial use. Food for human consumption has been a major focus in the use of this technological process. Because of their versatility of use, there is a possibility of using very different raw materials, which individually or mixed with other products can generate high added value food products. In this work we point out that only in the adequate control of the process parameters can we obtain foods of high nutritional value, with good sensory characteristics and functional properties.

The paper explores how food production and accessibility has become problematic within the developing nations. The problem will be more acute in the years to come due to boosting migrations from rural areas. Mismanagement of food distribution and processing is also counted as an issue. Modernization of agriculture could be recommended as a solution. Hunger and shortage of food have highly impacted the cities of developing countries to be unbearably densely populated. The UN has positively recommended that food problem within the developing world could be solved only if improved technologies are used. However, while more demands for food is observed today, more food needs to be produced. Similarly, as in urban areas more money is in circulation, people’s lifestyle is ever changing demanding more food in quantity and quality. Sustainable agricultural revolution emphasizes on efforts to be made to ever raise yields to feed the increasing population. The paper points to the increasing number of world countries facing malnutrition creating challenges. They all need solutions and remedies.

The paper explores how Asia as the largest continent with over fifty countries is facing food supply. While some well off and industrial countries of the continent have adequate access to food services, many others are not so. One of the social groups being seriously hurt by food problems, is the increasing aging people with no income, no pensions and isolated from work. Many Asian countries with longer life expectancy and increasing socio-economic expectations are in constant shortage of food and other items. Therefore, such countries with increasing elderly people need improved policies and financial security to get rid of food poverty. While the Western world started terminating food insecurity in early 20th century, Asian countries still have a long way to go, to change the lifestyles of their aging populations as far as their food services, housing, health and well-being are concerned. However, the consequences of aging are reflected in all facets of life, such as quality of life, food shortage, isolation and loneliness. All such characteristics and many more, need problem-solving approaches to bring about peaceful and normal conditions in the lives of such people.

The purpose of this study was to determine mothers knowledge on complementary feeding practices and relate this to the nutritional status of their children aged 6-23 months. The study adopted a cross-sectional analytical study design and was carried out at the kebele 05 in Jigjiga town among the randomly sampled 110 mothers and their children. A researcher-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. Data was entered and analyzed using SPSS version 20 ENA [1]. Anthropometric measurements were analyzed using Microsoft Excel. The respondents were mostly young (mean age 27.7±4.7 years), married (87.3%), housewives (70%) with mainly primary school level of education (48.2%). The main sources of income for most households were business (48.6%) and casual labor (31.8%). Mothers had high knowledge on complementary feeding practice (90%) out of the 20 knowledge questions. All (100%) the children aged 6-8 had been introduced to solids, semi-solids and soft foods. Majority of the breast-fed children received minimum meal frequency were 6-8 months old (86.7%) and 9-23 months old (90%) unlike the non-breast fed children (80%). Overall, 52.7% of all the children were stunted, 49.1% wasted and 43.6% underweight. Maternal knowledge on complementary feeding was significantly associated with nutritional status of their children. Mothers knowledge on feeding the sick and recovering children was related to underweight in children. The same was true of mothers who knew that a child’s main meal should be diversified. Mothers knowledge on complementary feeding practices was not significantly related to her complementary feeding practices (p>0.05). Nutrition programme should pay attention to cultural beliefs on infant and young child feeding.
本研究的目的是确定母亲对补充喂养方法的了解，并将其与6-23个月大的孩子的营养状况联系起来。本研究采用横断面分析研究设计，在吉吉加镇kebele 05进行，随机抽样110名母亲及其子女。研究人员通过问卷调查收集数据。使用SPSS version 20ena进行数据录入和分析[1]。使用Microsoft Excel对人体测量数据进行分析。受访者以年轻(平均27.7±4.7岁)、已婚(87.3%)、家庭主妇(70%)为主，以小学文化程度为主(48.2%)。大部分家庭的主要收入来源是经营(48.6%)和临时工(31.8%)。在20个知识问题中，母亲对辅食实践的了解程度较高(90%)。所有6-8岁的儿童(100%)都被引入固体，半固体和软食物。与非母乳喂养的儿童(80%)不同，母乳喂养的儿童中，6-8个月(86.7%)和9-23个月(90%)的儿童获得最低进餐频率。总体而言，52.7%的儿童发育不良，49.1%的儿童消瘦，43.6%的儿童体重不足。母亲对辅食的了解程度与孩子的营养状况显著相关。母亲喂养生病和康复儿童的知识与儿童体重不足有关。同样的道理也适用于那些知道孩子的主食应该多样化的母亲。母亲对辅食知识的掌握程度与其辅食行为无显著相关(p>0.05)。营养计划应注意对婴幼儿喂养的文化信仰。
