Reconnection of Food Policy, Environmental Ecosystem and Its Impact on Stunting Prevalence
Abstract
The increasing incidence of stunting in children is a big challenge for Indonesia as a whole. The Global Nutrition Report in 2018 showed that Indonesia's stunting prevalence was ranked 108th out of 132 countries, while in Southeast Asia, Indonesia's stunting prevalence was the second highest after Cambodia. This problem is related to the role of food policy, whose implementation has not been under what is written. In addition, the influence of ecosystems plays a crucial role, so it is necessary to restore the function of food policies to optimize environmental ecosystems. This study analyzes the reconnection of food policies, environmental ecosystems, and their impact on stunting prevalence. This is related to the existence of humans as social beings in different lives, and their distribution on earth has a long relationship with the existence and sustainability of environmental ecosystems. This relationship, in many ways, gives rise to inevitable consequences for environmental ecosystems, such as the need for food. The number of these basic needs is increasing from year to year. Food production is closely related to land use for agriculture, food, energy, and water. Therefore, quality food will support the fulfillment of the community's nutritional needs and contribute to preventing stunting prevalence. By re-analyzing, the function of this relationship, a map of stunting prevention policies will be obtained.
