Abstract

A study for the supplementary diet of the infants and young children of the farming area in Korea has been made. The number of infants and children was 344 aged from 3 months to 2 years and 7 months: the area studied represented one of the stabilized farming areas in this country. 95.6 per cent of the infants were breastfeeding babies, who could not supply any milk products or appropriate supplementary diets. For the improvement of nutritional states of the babies, regional childcare guidance was more urgently needed than social economical problems of this area.
