The Impact

The paper investigates the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on household food consumption in Uzbekistan. The study focuses on the effects of changes in food prices, declining consumption, and changes in household incomes. The Multinomial Logistic Regression Model was used in the factor impact analysis. Data for analysis were collected online by messenger groups from families in urban and rural areas of Uzbekistan. Results of the Econometric analysis demonstrated that the decline in food consumption in households was assessed by a decrease in income, a growth in total expenditures, and debt factors. The declining food supply in rural areas did not have a significant impact on consumption, but this figure was higher in urban regions.

The Pattern of Food Consumption Based on HDI in East JavaThe objectives of this article are (1) to analyze the influence of socio economic characteristics in influencing patterns of food consumption by HDI and (2) Analyze demand responses (elasticity) of East Java household to food prices and income changes. Linear Approximation Almost Ideal Demand System (LA/AIDS) and elasticity are used to answer the objectives by using microdata Susenas 2016. The result indicates that generally, socio economic characteristics contribute substantially in determining household food consumption patterns and based on their elasticity values, food commodities in East Java are price inelastic and more responsive to income changes.Keywords: Consumption Patterns; Demand Systems; LA/AIDS; East JavaAbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) menganalisis pengaruh karakteristik sosial ekonomi berdasarkan status IPM daerah terhadap pola konsumsi pangan rumah tangga dan (2) menganalisis elastisitas konsumsi pangan di Jawa Timur sebagai respons atas perubahan harga dan pendapatan. Model sistem permintaan Linear Approximation Almost Ideal Demand System (LA/AIDS) dan konsep elastisitas digunakan untuk menjawab tujuan tersebut dengan menggunakan data mikro Susenas 2016. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara umum, karakteristik sosial ekonomi memiliki andil yang besar dalam menentukan pola konsumsi pangan rumah tangga dan berdasarkan nilai elastisitasnya, komoditas pangan di Jawa Timur bersifat inelastis terhadap harga dan lebih responsif terhadap perubahan pendapatan.

The Impact

This study aims to analyze the general picture of food consumption and food demandresponse to changes in income, prices, demographic variable, and the impact of rising foodprices on household welfare in household food insecure areas ofSumatera. This study uses rawdata obtained from 2018 The National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas) BPS-Statistics. Thesample comprises 12,606 households in Sumatera’s food-insecure areas. A Quadratic AlmostIdeal Demand System (QUAIDS) is employed to estimate price and income elasticities, as wellas the impact of demographic and geographical factors on food demand patterns.Compensating Variation (CV) is used to estimate changes in household welfare due to anincrease in food prices. Ten aggregate commodity groups were chosen for this analysis: rice;non-rice grains and tubers, fish, shrimp, squid, shellfish; meat; eggs and milk; vegetables, fruitand nuts; oil and coconut; prepared food; other consumption; and cigarettes and tobacco. Theresults show that the higher the increase in food prices, the more reduction in householdwelfare. The proportion of household expenditure in Sumatera's food-insecure areas isdominated by food consumption. The proportion of household food expenditure in Sumatera'sfood-insecure areas is still dominated by food expenditure. The income elasticity of all foodgroups is positive. Meanwhile, the value of the price elasticity of the entire food group isnegative and to interpret it is absolute so it is positive. The value of cross-price elasticity variesbetween food groups. Income, price, and demographic variables except head of household sexand poverty status have an effect on the pattern of food consumption. An increase in foodprices reduces household welfare. Policy advice for the government is to increase the incomeof the household in Sumatera food-insecurity area, maintain price stability or reduce foodprices.

Abstract Background Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has affected health and lifestyle behaviors of people globally. This project aims to identify the impact of COVID-19 on lifestyle behavior of individuals in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region during confinement. Methods We conducted an online survey in 17 countries (Egypt, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Yemen, Syria, Palestine, Algeria, Morocco, Libya, Tunisia, Iraq, and Sudan) from the MENA region on August and September 2020. The questionnaire included self-reported information on lifestyle behaviors, including physical activity, eating habits, smoking, watching television, social media use and sleep before and during the pandemic. Logistic regression was performed to analyze the impact of COVID-19 on lifestyle behaviors. Results A total of 5896 participants were included in the final analysis and 62.8% were females. The BMI of the participants was 25.4 ± 5.8 kg/m2. Around 38.4% of the participants stopped practicing any physical activities during the confinement (P < 0.001), and 57.1% reported spending more than 2 h on social media (P < 0.001). There were no significant changes in smoking habits. Also, 30.9% reported an improvement in their eating habits compared with 24.8% reported worsening of their eating habits. Fast-food consumption decreased significantly in 48.8% of the study population. This direct/indirect exposure to COVID-19 was associated with an increased consumption of carbohydrates (OR = 1.09; 95% CI = 1.02–1.17; P = 0.01), egg (OR = 1.08; 95% CI = 1.02–1.16; P = 0.01), sugar (OR = 1.09; 95% CI = 1.02–1.16; P = 0.02), meat, and poultry (OR = 1.13; 95% CI = 1.06–1.20; P < 0.01). There was also associated increase in hours spent on watching television (OR = 1.07; 95% CI = 1.02–1.12; P < 0.01) and social media (OR = 1.09; 95% CI = 1.01–1.18; P = 0.03). However, our results showed a reduction in sleeping hours among those exposed to COVID-19 infection (OR = 0.85; 95% CI = 0.77–0.94; P < 0.01). Conclusions The COVID-19 pandemic was associated with an increase in food consumption and sedentary life. Being exposed to COVID-19 by direct infection or through an infected household is a significant predictor of amplifying these changes. Public health interventions are needed to address healthy lifestyle behaviors during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
