Officials and researchers of the Children’s Nutrition Research Institute under the Academy of Medical Sciences put great effort into introducing the nutritional and hygienic standards related with the supply of dairy products across the country.

They have surveyed the actual situation of childcare institutions across the country and confirmed the nutritional state of children in each region, and intensified research to find the ways for enhancing nutritional supply and set a proper standard for assessment.

In the course of this, they made a “guide to nutrition management of children” and distributed it all over the country, thus providing a foundation to put nutrition management of children on a scientific basis.

The institute sent competent researchers to different parts of the country to ensure that childcare institutions fully meet the requirements of the guide.

Officials across the country made strenuous efforts to supply childcare institutions with over ten kinds of foodstuffs every day as required by the guide.

The South Hwanghae Provincial People’s Committee paid due attention to applying a scientific nutrition management method to children in relevant units. In particular, it organized a demonstration on how the nurseries in the city of Haeju conducted the nutrition management of children with dairy products supplied by the state and vegetables and meats produced by themselves in greenhouses and stockbreeding bases in accordance with the guide sent by the central authorities, and has ensured that other childcare institutions draw on their experience in managing the nutrition of children in a responsible manner.

The South Hamgyong Provincial People’s Committee took into full account the number of children of nurseries and kindergartens in the province and the necessary daily amount of dairy products and took a measure to ensure the output of milk in cities and counties. As a result, they have more than doubled the varieties and output of dairy products such as milk powder, acidophilus milk and yogurt and supplied nurseries and kindergartens with various kinds of fresh dairy products every day.

As primary attention has been paid to the nutrition management for children at nurseries and kindergartens all across the country on the basis of daily assessment and analysis of their growth, their heights and weights are exceeding the standards.
