The country needs an estimated PhP 6.5B to help the 3.64M stunted children six months to three years old.  

This is according to the Department of Science and Technology-Food and Nutrition Research Institute (DOST-FNRI), which has been implementing the Malnutrition Reduction Program (MRP) since 2011, a science-based nutrition strategy that help address the high prevalence of underweight infants and young Filipino, in partnership with the local government units, national government agencies, and the private sector.

One pack of complementary food developed by DOST-FNRI, priced at PhP15.00, is needed per child daily, that translates to PhP 54.6M per day to feed the 3.64M stunted children for 120 feeding days. Currently, the DOST-FNRI, through its existing complementary food production facilities, can only cover 2.04% of this projected demand.
