Apart from that, to support activities, demonstrations were held on making tempeh and processing tempeh nuggets as MPASI to prevent and overcome stunting. During the evaluation process, the pre-test results showed a score of 59.2%, indicating that the target did not really understand the prevention and management of stunting. The post-test results showed that 93.8% of cadres' knowledge and awareness increased regarding stunting and the benefits of tempeh as a functional food to prevent stunting.]]>
