The aim of this work is to make an inventory of the cereals available in areas of prevalence of malnutrition in Côte d'Ivoire.
To this end, a descriptive and documentary study was carried out in Côte d'Ivoire From February to November 2017. Cereal production areas have been identified by combining malnutrition prevalence data. The analysis showed that the northern and northeastern areas of Côte d'Ivoire are considered critical with malnutrition proportions in the past 40%. Those in Central, West and Northwest Côte d'Ivoire, with malnutrition in excess of 30%, are considered serious. As for cereal production, it is effective on all the extent of the Ivorian territory. However, the quantities and types of cereals differ from one area to another.
Additional studies on other foods would be needed to assess the design of balanced formulas for complementary children's flours and to better define the scope of actions to combat effective against malnutrition in Côte d'Ivoire.
