Monitoring the nutrition of elementary school students

In Russia, an automated system for monitoring the nutrition of primary school students has been successfully operating for 3 years, in which 39 thousand catering units participate, providing meals to 7.6 million students. The database contains 13.2 million actual nutrition menus and standard menus of 31 thousand catering units, in digital form, available for scientific analysis by nutritionists and commodity experts. Information from the federal monitoring system is used in the operational management of school meals; detected deviations from school consumption standards are used to correct and improve the menu.
