This research was conducted from April to June 2022 with a total sample of 49 people. Data analysis in this study used the Gamma Correlation statistical test. The study results concluded that there is a relationship between the pattern of breastfeeding, feeding pattern, and primary immunization with the incidence of stunting in children.
