What is Household consumption of infant foods in two low-income districts in Malawi about?

## Abstract Household resource allocation to infant foods and infant care is investigated using data from 160 households in two low‐income districts in Malawi. Infant care is found to have a unitary budget and an inelastic price elasticity. While demand for two porridge types respond similarly to ingredients' price changes, adult meals substitute the porridges. Eradicating household income poverty; diversification of the household production, diet, infant food, and target recipients of infant nutritional information; widening the vitamin A fortification options; and targeting mothers of infants in work programmes are the proposed policy options.
