The intervention included two educational sessions on congenital defect and the management of healthy crops to be processed into nutritious food. A healthy food recipe book was provided, followed by a cooking demonstration by each participant. The knowledge of couples of reproductive ages increased from pretest to posttest with an average increase of 22.5. Statistical analysis using Wilcoxon showed a significant difference in the knowledge of couples of reproductive ages after the intervention (p=0.000).
