    The Impact of a Nutrition Education Programme on the Anthropometric Nutritional Status of Low-Income Children in South Africa

    Public Health Nutrition: 5(1), 3±9 DOI: 10.1079/PHN2001204 The impact of a nutrition education programme on the anthropometric nutritional status of low-income children in South Africa CM Walsh1,*, A Dannhauser2 and G Joubert3 1School of Tourism, Hospitality and Sport, Technikon Free State, Private Bag X20539, Bloemfontein 9300, South Africa: 2Department of Human Nutrition, University of the Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa: 3Department of Biostatistics, University of the Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa Submitted 10 December 1998: Accepted 30 May 2001 Abstract Objective: The study determined the impact of a community-based nutrition education programme, using trained community nutrition advisors, on the anthropometric nutritional status of mixed-race children aged between 2 and 5 years. Design and setting: The programme was implemented over two years in four study areas in the Free State and Northern Cape Provinces. Two control areas were included to differentiate between the effect of the education programme and a food aid programme that were implemented simultaneously. Weight-for-age, height-for- age and weight-for-height were summarised using standard deviations from the NCHS reference median. For each of the indicators, the difference in the percentage of children below minus two standard deviations from the reference NCHS median in the initial and follow-up surveys was determined. Subjects: Initially 536 children were measured and, after two years of intervention, 815. Results: Weight-for-age improved in all areas, but only significantly in boys and girls in the urban study area, and in boys in one rural study area. No significant improvement in height-for-age occurred in any area.

  • A Regional Analysis of Agricultural Price Risk in South Africa

    A Regional Analysis of Agricultural Price Risk in South Africa

    Agrekon, Vol 33, No 3 (September 1994) Van Schalkwyk and Groenewald A REGIONAL ANALYSIS OF AGRICULTURAL PRICE RISK IN SOUTH AFRICA HD van Schalkwyk and JA Groenewald Lecturer and Professor, Department ofAgricultural Economics, Extension and Rural Development, University ofPretoria, Pretoria Regional output/input price differentials and variations were calculated to evaluate price risk in South Africa. It was found that price unstable regions are not necessarily also risky regions as regions with higher output/input price ratios can handle higher price variations better. The average value of the price index for the top ten regions is over 3 times larger than the average for the ten lowest regions. The higher the prices of inputs relative to output prices (the lower the price ratio), the smaller their application to each hectare of land, and the lower the land productivity. The regional prices appears to be a function of the interaction between differential natural and economic factors in different regions. 'n Streeksanalise van landbou prysrisiko in Suid-Afrika Regionale uitset/inset prysverskille en variasies is bereken om prys risiko in Suid-Afrika te evalueer. Daar is gevind dat prys onstabiele streke the noodwendig ook hoe risiko streke is nie, want streke met hoer uitset/inset prys verhoudings kan hoer prys variasies beter verwerk. Die gemiddelde waarde van die prys indeks vir die tien top streke is nicer as 3 keer groter as die gemiddeld vir die tien laagste streke. Hoe hoer die pryse van insette relatief tot uiset pryse(hoe lac- die prys verhouding), hoe minder is hulle aanwending per hektaar, en hoe laer die grond produktiwiteit.
