Proper feeding practices during infancy are also essential for attaining and maintaining proper nutrition, health, and development of infants and children. Objective of doing this study is to assess the knowledge about weaning food and its practices. The study was conducted among 100 mothers of Udaipur community to assess the knowledge regarding complementary feeding practices on infant. It is good indication that majority (100%) was aware about the immunization of their child. Data depicted that majority of the subjects (80%) started weaning of their infants in 4-6 months and few (10%) were started from 3-4 months. Observations shows that weaned infants were given liquid and semi solid and ready to eat foods. Fruit juice (20%), dal soup (40%), veg soup (10%) and dal (50%) given to infant as liquid form. Most of the subjects were giving their kid soft chapati as solid food form because it’s major part of family diet.Keywords

The present investigation was conducted to study the effect of processing (germination) and cooking (roasting) methods on the total iron, invitro iron and phytic acid of moth beans. The processing (germination) and cooking (roasting) methods caused increase in iron bioavailability content of moth beans. Mean while, phytate contents were decreased of the studied moth beans. These resulted revealed that the processing (germination) and cooking methods (roasting) was more effective in eliminating the contents of phytic acid in moth beans which plays major role hinder the absorption of minerals.Keywords

Glycemic response of the selected Quality Protein Maize based nutri rich product was determined. The selected product was an extruded ready to eat snack product which was developed and standardized in the Lab of College of Dairy and Food Science Technology, Udaipur for its processing parameters and acceptability scores. Moisture, Protein, Fat, Carbohydrate, Ash and Fibre content of the product were 6.05 g, 11.24 g, 6.71 g, 63.81 g, 6.48 g and 5.71 g per 100 g, respectively. An interview schedule was developed to collect the information on general profile, health habits and food habits. Results revealed that of the total subjects 76.66 per cent were vegetarian 23.33 per cent were ovo- vegetarian and none of them were non- vegetarians. Out of the selected subjects 23.33 per cent consumed four meals, 66.66 per cent consumed three meals daily, and 10 per cent consumed two meals par day. About 56 per cent subjects consumed snacks in between the meals. The commonly consumed snacks included biscuits, fruits, wafers, sprouts, samosa etc and 43.33 per cent skipped one or two meals in a day. The dietary modification was made by 73.33 per cent subjects whereas 26.66 per cent did not modify their diet. Anthropometric measurements showed that the mean weight of the subject was 57.17 kg, whereas mean height was 157 cm. The mean of waist and hip circumference of the subjects were 82.5 cm, 103.83 cm, respectively. Body mass index and waist hip ratio were determined. The mean BMI was 23.11 kg m2 whereas mean WHR was 0.79. The mean systolic blood pressure was 108.33 mm Hg whereas mean diastolic blood pressure was 71.13mm Hg. Glucose Tolerance Test was conducted for the glucose and test recipe at fasting (0), 30, 60, 90 and 120 hours after feeding the test recipe to determine glycemic index. It was found that glucose response of the subjects reached its peak at half an hour whereas for the test recipe it reached at one an hour for majority of the subjects which indicates delay in absorption of test recipe. Glycemic index calculated from Area Under Curve for the test recipe was 48.10 which is low when compared with classification suggested by Monro et al. (2008), which is low suggesting the positive effect of test recipe in the management of diabetes.Keywords

Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) is considered as a “Silver Bullet” for eradicating rural poverty and unemployment, by way of generating demand for productive labour force in villages. It provides an alternative source of livelihood. It has been considered as the largest anti-poverty programme in the world. The MGNREGA and food security are significantly interlinked and the act gives a necessary push to the purchasing power. As women are essential parts of a society. Provision of employment opportunities and income to rural women is one way to improve their nutrition, health, education and social status. The present study was conducted in Baran district of Rajasthan for assessing utilization of MGNREGA income by daily waged women worker. It was reported by majority of the respondents (93.6%) reported that participation in MGNREGA increased their family income. The average increase income of most of the respondents (43.20%) before and after joining programme was between in the range of Rs. 500-2500/-. The mean gain income was Rs. 1430.57/- which was significantly higher. MGNREGA has substantially improved the purchasing power leading to provision of quality food from hand to mouth. Economic participation helped the respondents in increasing their resources, food consumption, clothing and housing. It also helped them to reduce the debt.Keywords

MGNREGA is an ambitious scheme providing employment to rural people of India. The basic aim of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act is to enhance livelihood security of household in rural area. By this scheme Govt. gives assurance of employment to unskilled rural laborer for 100 days. With better implementation such type of scheme may be an effective weapon to fight against poverty. It also aims at transforming the rural areas by improving the socio-economic conditions of people. The present study was undertaken with the objective to assess the socio-economic status of MGNREGA women beneficiaries in Baran district of Rajasthan. Five villages namely Laxmipura, Chainpura, Ratanpura, Govindpura and Khedliganj from Atru Panchayat Samiti were identified for the study. Twenty five women beneficiaries from each village were selected making a total of 125 women beneficiaries. All respondents selected for the study were in the age group 30-45 years. Majority of the respondents (86.4%) were married and rest of them (13.6%) widow. Most of respondents who come for MGNREGA work belonged to schedule caste and schedule tribe (57.6%), backward caste (25.6%) and a small number were from general caste (2.4%). Maximum numbers of respondents (86.4%) were working as farm labour. Fifty eight per cent respondents were from nuclear family and rest of them (42.4%) belonged to joint family. Regarding education a high percentage respondents (91.2%) were illiterate and had no any organizational membership. Majority of respondents (72.8%) were landless, whereas 18.4 per cent had land upto 4.5 bighas. Most of them (53.6%) reside in Kachaha house. Calculation of socio-economic status (AICRP-HECM 1998) revealed that all respondents (100%) belonged to low socio-economic status.Keywords
