Abstrakt:	Background: Malnutrition is common among children under 5 years of age in Indonesia, with the rates varying between urban and rural areas. The minimum acceptable diet (MAD) assesses nutrient quality and quantity. This study aimed to identify the potential variables for MAD in 6-23-month-old children in both urban and rural Indonesia. Methods: We used the data from the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey to conduct this nationally representative study. A total of 4,688 children aged 6-23 months were included in the study. MAD was classified using the 2017 World Health Organization global nutrition monitoring framework. The determinants of MAD were analyzed using multiple logistic regression. Results: Overall, 45% of children aged 6-23 months received the required MAD, with 47.4% receiving the MAD in urban areas and 35.7% in rural areas. Children's age, fathers' age, parents' education level, mothers' employment, and wealth index were strongly linked to MAD in both rural and urban homes. The factor specifically related to MAD in urban areas was mother living with her husband. For rural households, mothers' involvement in decisionmaking and a minimum of four antenatal care (ANC) visits significantly increased the likelihood of their children's MAD status. Conclusion: MAD status was determined by increased child age, higher parent education, younger father, working mother, and higher wealth index in children aged 6-23 months in both urban and rural settings. Mothers living with a spouse determined the MAD status only in urban areas. More frequent ANC visits and mother participation in household decisions were other factors related to MAD status in rural areas.
