Abstract

The findings highlight a significant nutritional challenge among Rwandan women, with low dietary diversity, significant rates of anemia, and food insecurity. The study calls for an urgent need for targeted nutritional interventions to improve dietary diversity and address micronutrient deficiencies among women in agriculture to enhance maternal health and child development, thereby contributing to broader public health goals.
