A cross-sectional study of nutritional status was carried out in Gondar region, Northwest Ethiopia in 1988. The objectives of the study were to compare the nutritional status of pre-school children of cooperative (Coops) and individual (Non-Coops) farmers and to determine factors accountable for the differences in the two groups of children, such as land size and income. A total of 376 children were studied. Although the overall malnutrition rate was found to be very high, the nutritional status of the pre-school children of the Coops was significantly better than that of the Non-Coops. The mean land size of the Coops and Non-Coops was 3.63 and 1.44 ha. and the mean annual income was 1,017 and 329 Ethiopian birr, respectively.
1988年在埃塞俄比亚西北部的贡德尔地区开展了一项营养状况横断面研究。该研究的目的是比较合作社农民（Coops）和个体农民（Non-Coops）的学龄前儿童的营养状况，并确定造成两组儿童差异的因素，如土地面积和收入。总共对376名儿童进行了研究。虽然总体营养不良率很高，但合作社学龄前儿童的营养状况明显优于个体农民的儿童。合作社和个体农民的平均土地面积分别为3.63公顷和1.44公顷，平均年收入分别为1017埃塞俄比亚比尔和329埃塞俄比亚比尔。
