The practice of colostrum feeding and factors influencing the same were studied by interviewing 2158 mothers belonging to low socio-economic group from urban slums and rural areas of Maharashtra and Gujarat. Statistically significant (p less than 0.001) difference was found between rural and urban areas with regard to the practice of feeding colostrum. Though the percentage feeding colostrum was very poor, the discard of colostrum was very less among rural mothers. Developmental programmes such as ICDS and others also showed significantly beneficial effects on colostrum feeding practice in both urban and rural (p less than 0.001) areas. Socio-economic factors such as better income (p less than 0.001) and hospital delivery were noted to have positive influence on colostrum feeding. Religion did not seem to affect the practice of colostrum feeding.
通过对来自马哈拉施特拉邦和古吉拉特邦城市贫民窟及农村地区的2158名低社会经济群体母亲进行访谈，研究了初乳喂养的做法及其影响因素。在初乳喂养做法方面，农村和城市地区存在统计学上的显著差异（p<0.001）。尽管初乳喂养率很低，但农村母亲丢弃初乳的情况较少。综合儿童发展服务计划（ICDS）等发展项目在城市和农村地区对初乳喂养做法也显示出显著的有益影响（p<0.001）。更好的收入（p<0.001）和医院分娩等社会经济因素被认为对初乳喂养有积极影响。宗教似乎并未影响初乳喂养的做法。
