description In Madhya Pradesh, significant improvements have been made in reducing undernutrition in the last several years. Between 2010 and 2014, the percentage of zero- to five-year-old children who were underweight decreased from 52 percent to 36 percent. However, 41 percent of children in the state were stunted. Poor child-feeding practices are associated with growth faltering. The most recent data show that 74 percent of zero- to five-montholds are exclusively breastfed, but only 48 percent of six- to eight-month-olds receive complementary foods (NIN 2011; MWDC 2014).
