Biofortified Maize Can Improve Quality Protein Intakes among Young Children in Southern Ethiopia
Quality protein maize (QPM) varieties are biofortified, or nutritionally improved, to have higher lysine and tryptophan levels to increase quality protein intakes particularly among young children. This study assesses adequacy of children’s protein intakes in Ethiopia, where QPM is being promoted, a...
