Abstract:
Minimum dietary diversity is the consumption of four or more food groups from the seven
food groups for higher dietary quality. Currently, there are a number of studies on childhood dietary
diversity practice in different parts of Ethiopia, but most of these studies deals with issues of dietary
diversity practice and its associated factors within a single population. Previous findings were insufficient to

design is a more appropriate method to compare among communities
