  • Background: Stunting is one of the main problems of malnutrition often found in under-five children. The impacts include delayed growth, low endurance, lack of intelligence and low productivity. The incidence of stunting in children aged 6-24 months is related to environmental factors either prenatal or postnatal. One of the factors that influences the incidence of stunting directly is low birth weight (LBW), while the incidence of stunting is indirectly influenced by socioeconomic factors such as maternal education, low family income and number of family members.
