Minimum acceptable diet and associated factors among children aged 6-23 months in Jig-Jiga, Somali region, eastern Ethiopia, 2022.

This study showed that the prevalence of a minimum acceptable diet was low. Factors associated with a minimum acceptable diet included the father's occupation, the child's age, the mother's age, having one under-five child, and the media as a source of information. Therefore, interventional strategies that focus on family planning and advocacy for infant and young child feeding are required to improve the provision of a minimum acceptable diet.
