Abstract: [EN] The result of a LA-AIDS showed that the food consumption of poor households in West Java is influenced by its own-price, the price of other commodities, income, number of household members, household location, education of the head of household, and work type of the head of the household. The own-price elasticity identified that the price increase in each commodity group does not affect the consumption of the general food group. The cross-price elasticity of food groups showed more complementary. [ES] El resultado de una LA-AIDS mostró que el consumo de alimentos de los hogares pobres en Java Occidental está influenciado por su propio precio, el precio de otros productos básicos, los ingresos, el número de miembros del hogar, la ubicación del hogar, la educación del jefe de hogar y tipo de trabajo del jefe de hogar. La elasticidad del precio propio identificó que el aumento de precios en cada grupo de productos básicos no afecta el consumo del grupo de alimentos en general. Mientras tanto, la elasticidad precio cruzado de los grupos de alimentos se mostró más complementaria.
