The success of nutrition-sensitive agricultural interventions in countries in the Middle East and North Africa has not been examined in much depth.

To narrow this knowledge gap, a smallholder farm household survey was conducted in six governorates in Upper Egypt in April and May 2018 following the winter cropping season.
