A Survey Statistical Dataset on Food Consumption among Rural Residents in the Provinces of Jilin, Shandong, and Hubei

The dataset is derived from an on-site survey conducted in 2022, covering 1080 rural households across the provinces of Jilin, Shandong, and Hubei. It contains information about food markets, village characteristics and rural residents' food consumption. Information about food markets primarily includes the state of food markets in towns and within a specific radius around the village. Village information includes the roles of village leaders, overall village conditions, the state of the village food market and various socio-economic characteristics of the village. Rural residents' food consumption information includes monthly food consumption recalls, 3-day food consumption records, nutritional dietary knowledge, and evaluations of food markets and household food security. Specifically, the 3-day food consumption data provides a comprehensive record of food consumption over three consecutive days in rural households. This record includes details about the individuals participating in the meals, the specific food items consumed along with their respective quantities, sources of these food items, purchase prices, levels of food processing, remaining food quantities and the methods employed for managing leftover food. The data preprocessing steps are carried out according to the standardization process, transforming the raw data into more standardized and accurate data. The dataset can provide a foundational basis for academic research on rural residents' food consumption and also offer data support for government departments in formulating dietary and nutritional interventions for rural residents.
