Abstract
Consumption patterns in Indonesia are unbalanced resulting in malnutrition. A government-initiated intervention program called sustainable food reserve was designed to increase consumption of vegetables by developing a model of garden vegetable production for home consumption. This study analyzed the role, and contribution, of vegetables in the program to estimate available nutrition and determined the value of vegetables in the program. A structural equation model was used. Many types of vegetables were grown by program-participants. Vegetable consumption increased and provided contributions to balanced food consumption.
