Abstract:
Based on the results of the 2018 Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) shows that 95.5% of the population aged ? 5 years consume less vegetables and fruits. Meanwhile, in West Java Province, 98.2% of the population aged ? 5 years does not consume vegetables and fruits. The proportion is even higher when compared to the proportion nationally. Lack of consumption of vegetables and fruits can affect the supply of fiber, vitamins, and minerals that are needed by the body. Although the interest in vegetable consumption of Indonesians is still relatively low, in Indonesia vegetables are still one of the mandatory menus in daily consumption. Quoting from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the average per capita expenditure a month for vegetable consumption tends to increase every year. The peak occurred in March 2021 with a per capita expenditure of IDR 53,864 per month. This clustering process was carried out for 27 regencies/cities in West Java. Grouping into two clusters is selected based on the highest Pseudo - F value that has been calculated. From the results of the analysis, the first cluster found that the per capita income a week according to vegetables in this cluster is relatively high. In the second cluster is a group of regencies/cities in West Java with a per capita income a week according to low vegetables. If every region in Indonesia can optimize the quality of vegetables, it is expected that the consumption interest of the Indonesian people will also increase and the country's per capita income from vegetable commodities will also increase.
