In Indonesia, school feeding programs have not been established nationally due to the government's limited budget. To examine the possibility of copayment for school feeding programs, parents' intentions to use the school feeding programs and their willingness to pay (WTP) for these programs should be considered. We conducted an online questionnaire survey among the parents of junior high school students in all five public junior high schools in the Kepanjen District of Malang Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia. We used the contingent valuation method to elicit parents' WTP for school feeding and calculated the price elasticity of school feeding. Factors associated with the WTP were examined using logistic regression analysis. Of the 940 participants, 90% intended to use school feeding programs, and 30% were willing to pay Rp 15,000 (USD 1.05) or higher per meal. Of the 944 students (participants' children), all but two students consumed meals or snacks at school, with 74% consuming foods three or more times daily. Higher WTP for school feeding was associated with frequent food consumption at school, higher income, and a better perception of meals at school. In contrast, lower WTP was associated with more household members. Most parents intended to use school feeding programs with certain WTP irrespective of the price of school feeding. Therefore, school feeding in Indonesia might be expanded through copayment.
在印度尼西亚，由于政府预算有限，尚未在全国范围内建立学校供餐计划。为了研究学校供餐计划共同支付的可能性，应该考虑家长使用学校供餐计划的意愿及其对这些计划的支付意愿（WTP）。我们在印度尼西亚东爪哇省玛琅摄政区帕南詹区的五所公立初中的初中生家长中进行了在线问卷调查。我们使用条件价值评估法来了解家长对学校供餐的 WTP，并计算了学校供餐的价格弹性。使用逻辑回归分析检查了与 WTP 相关的因素。在 940 名参与者中，90%的人表示打算使用学校供餐计划，30%的人愿意每餐支付 15,000 印尼盾（1.05 美元）或更高的费用。在 944 名学生（参与者的孩子）中，除了两名学生之外，所有学生都在学校吃午餐或零食，其中 74%的学生每天吃三顿或更多次食物。较高的学校供餐 WTP 与在学校更频繁地食用食物、更高的收入和对学校餐食的更好看法有关。相反，较低的 WTP 与更多的家庭成员有关。大多数家长表示，无论学校供餐的价格如何，都有一定的 WTP 意愿来使用学校供餐计划。因此，印度尼西亚的学校供餐可以通过共同支付来扩大。
