The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) notes a disparity in protein consumption among the population based on expenditure quintiles. The lowest expenditure group, the first quintile, only consumes 45.47 grams of protein per capita per day. The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for Indonesians is 57 grams of protein. This means the first quintile still needs 11.53 grams of protein per capita per day to meet their nutritional needs.
Furthermore, the second quintile is also below the standard, although not significantly, at 54.58 grams. Expenditure groups from the third to fifth quintiles have met the protein RDA: 60.8 grams for the third quintile, 68.63 grams for the fourth quintile, and 80.43 grams for the fifth quintile.
