‡ The per cent change from baseline (% Change) was estimated as the difference between end-line and baseline values as a percentage of the baseline value [(end-line–baseline/ baseline) x100].

† Even though the mean values at end-line may be lower than mean values at baseline, the overall % Change for the whole arm may be positive (or vice versa); since it is the mean of the %Change for individual households; as is the case for fruit and vegetable procurement.

§ p-values for difference of the difference (i.e. difference in %change between the intervention and control arms) were based on the coefficient of linear regression for weighted samples adjusted for cluster design effect.

* p<0.05.
