An investigation of the aspects affecting non-Muslim customers’ purchase intention of halal food products in Jakarta, Indonesia
(2021-05-25)

Nutrient and oil profile of Escamol, an edible larva of ants (Liometopum apiculatum Mayr)
(2021-05-25)
The objective of this study was to evaluate proximal chemical analysis, oil and fatty acids in escamol dehydrated and butter-fried that are commercially available in Mexico. In order to measure the escamol and oil quality, a chemical analysis were performed. The identification fatty acids was by refractive index. The proximal chemical analysis results in escamol fresh and deshydrated indicated that moisture (56.00-1.89 %), protein (15.30-34.78 %), lipids (20.05-45.57 %), ash (1.91-4.35 %) and carbohydrates (6.73-13.41 ...

Trust and the clean food imaginaries: an analysis of a short food supply chain from Romania
(2021-05-25)
As concerns about food safety and environmental issues gain more attention in the public eye, organic labels are growing in popularity, being presented as the solution for a more sustainable and conscious food system. Yet, organic certificates did not manage to actively change the food system but merely created a niche to be exploited, thus many of the environmental-friendly practices being co-opted by corporations without addressing the larger issues of concern. This paper looks at how small producers, who are ...

Finding alternatives: Canadian attitudes towards novel foods in support of sustainable agriculture
(2021-09-29)
Global agriculture and farming practices account for roughly a quarter of total atmospheric emissions. Protein agricultural is especially prone to green-house gas emissions. There is a need to find alternatives, both in the form of protein and sustainable practices in providing alternative protein sources. However, sustainable agricultural practices must consider consumer behaviour and attitude towards switching protein sources. In this study, we carried out a survey of 993 Canadians in order to better understand the ...

Remote sensing of yield and invasive species in nature conservation grasslands invaded by Lupinus polyphyllus
(2021-07)
Extensiv bewirtschaftetes Grünland und naturnahes Naturschutzgrünland sind wertvolle Bereitsteller von Ökosystemdienstleistungen und könnten eine Schlüsselrolle in zukünftigen Managementstrategien spielen zum Schutz von Arten, die durch den Klimawandel bedroht sind. Jedoch ist extensives Grünland, wie viele andere Ökosysteme, bedroht durch die Ausbreitung invasiver Arten, welche einen großen Einfluss auf den Verlust der Biodiversität haben.
Um den Herausforderungen unserer Zeit zu begegnen, sollten Innovationen in ...

Reasons for consuming rasi as a staple food for the Cireundeu indigenous people: a qualitative study
(2021-09-29)
Rasi (made from cassava) are used as staple food by the Cireundeu indigenous people. This food culture is considered different from the food culture of Indonesian people who generally make rice as their staple food. Therefore, this study aimed to show the reasons Cireundeu indigenous people consume rasi as their staple food. This qualitative research was conducted in Cireundeu Village, Cimahi City, West Java Province, Indonesia. Data was collected from the Cireundeu indigenous people through in-depth interviews and ...

Analysis of the nutritional and productive behaviour of dairy cows under three rotation bands of pastures, Pichincha, Ecuador
(2021-12-08)
This research was carried out on Pennisetum clandestinum-based pastures to identify the effect of three (3) types of stocking methods with similar forage allowance (8.2 kg of dry matter for 100 kg of live weight) but differing by the occupation times of the rotations (3 h, 24 h, and continuous) on the behaviour and the production of dairy cows. The experimental scheme consisted in three herds of four Holstein Friesian cows grazing three paddocks, one per rotation type, for one week and replicated three times in a ...

Forage diversity and fertiliser adoption in Napier grass production among smallholder dairy farmers in Kenya
(2021-11-10)
Feed scarcity is one of the major challenges affecting smallholder dairy production in Kenya. Forages are the foundation of livestock nutritional requirements; forage diversification and fertiliser are intensification options that can increase productivity. A sample of 316 and 313 smallholder farmers were surveyed in eastern midlands and central highlands of Kenya, respectively, to establish the types of forages cultivated and the factors that influence fertiliser adoption in Napier grass (Cenchrus purpureus Schumach.) ...

Dependency and economic benefits of use of wild food plants use among tribal communities in Malai Madeshawara Hills wildlife sanctuary, Southern India
(2021-01-31)
Wild food plant resources and their indigenous knowledge of use, are in danger of being lost in areas where rapid environmental and cultural transformations have led to changes in eating habits and practices. The study assesses the dependency and economic value of wild food plant use among forest-dwelling communities. Community perceptions are used to assess the use patterns and interrelations of human well-being. The data is collected through a combination of semi-structured interviews, household questionnaire survey, ...
