The mother's agency has some interesting and puzzling results. While higher agency is strongly associated with better health outcomes and exclusive breastfeeding, it has a negative association with the demand for dairy products and appropriate meal frequency. Maternal self-reported health status is positively related to both child health indicators, but has no association with the food inputs. Surprisingly, nutritional knowledge has mostly no effect on any of the inputs, except for a small and weakly significant association with the intake of dairy products.
