Empowering women agripreneurs through precision agriculture technology adoption: An integrative review of literature
(2023-11-30)
The use of precision agricultural technology has been shown to increase yields while decreasing the farmer’s exposure to risk. Despite women’s important involvement in agriculture in many nations, there remains a technological gap between the genders. Particular focus on agriculture’s essential role in alleviating poverty and hunger. The literature gap in precision agriculture technology adoption by women agripreneurs needs to be addressed. This study presents an integrative review of the literature aimed at identifying ...

Effect of storage temperatures and modified atmosphere packaging on sprouting and quality attributes of fresh peeled garlic cloves
(2023-11-30)
This study was conducted during 2021 and 2022 seasons to evaluate the influence of active modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) at levels of 3% O₂ + 5% CO₂, 3% O₂ + 10% CO₂, 3% O₂ + 15% CO₂, 3% O₂ + 97% N₂, and 5% N₂ + 95% O₂ as compared with passive MAP as a control on sprouting and rooting delay and maintaining quality attributes of fresh peeled garlic cloves during storage at 5 and 10°C and 90 - 95% relative humidity for 20 days. The results indicated that all active MAP treatments were effective in reducing weight ...

Entwicklung eines innovativen Produktionsverfahrens für die Herstellung von Wurstwaren ohne Verwendung von Zusatzstoffen
(2023)
Das Ziel der vorliegenden wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen ist die Entwicklung von Produktionsverfahren für Brüh- und Frischwurst ohne die Verwendung von Nitritpökelsalz und anderen Zusatzstoffen, die mittels Angaben von E-Nummern deklariert werden müssen. Am Beispiel von Bio-Lyoner in Dosen und Bio-Edelsalami wurden im Rahmen eines F&E-Vorhabens, welches unter Praxisbedingungen bei der Bäuerlichen Erzeugergemeinschaft Schwäbisch Hall (BESH) durchgeführt wurde, innovative Produktionsverfahren entwickelt und auf ihre ...

Evaluating essential micronutrient content, sensory acceptability & economic viability of formulated sesame (Sesamum indicum), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) & groundnut (Arachis hypogea) food blend
(2023-08-31)
Food blending involving legumes and cereals that has been widely explored, however, there is a paucity of evidence of the use of ‘neglected crops’ such as sesame oil seed in complementing cereals and legumes to alleviate micronutrient deficiency. A completely randomised design involving food blends as treatments and a cross-sectional survey for sensory acceptability of food blends evaluation was done. Proximate macro- and micro-nutrient composition of substrates and food blend mixes was done using the Association of ...

The Impacts of Different Pea Protein Isolate Levels on Physiochemical, Textural, and Sensory evaluation of Ready-to-Cook Plant-Based Minced Meatballs from Oyster Mushroom
(2023-09-10)
The effects of different ratios of pea protein isolate (PPI) (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% w/w) on ready-to-cook plant-based minced meatballs made from oyster mushrooms were investigated. Increasing the PPI ratio resulted in higher protein content, while values for lightness (L*), yellowness (b*), hardness, adhesiveness, and chewiness decreased compared to the control. Sensory evaluation indicated that all treatments received overall liking scores ranging from 6.50 to 7.23. The study demonstrated that incorporating 10% PPI ...

Chemical analysis and consumer acceptance of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) rendang as a typical West Sumatra culinary innovation
(2023-08-29)
Rendang is one of the typical foods of the Minangkabau people in West Sumatra. The cooking process takes about 6-7 hours at a temperature of 80-90ºC, which decreases the nutritional level. This long process enables the perfect cooking of the meat. White oyster mushrooms can be used as a substitute for rendang meat because the vegetable protein contains lots of fibre, and the texture is similar to meat. Based on the results of the hedonic test on 72 respondents under and above 45 years old, the oyster mushroom rendang ...

The potency of robusta coffee pulp as a vinegar product
(2023-11-30)
Coffee processing produces 40-50 % of by-products that can damage coffee plants and cause environmental pollution. The coffee pulp as waste can be used for producing acetic acid solution as a preservative and hand-washing agent to prevent infection. The fermentation process can affect the quality of the acetic acid solution. This study aims to analyse the effect of yeast types and time fermentation as well as to determine the characteristics of acetic acid solution from Robusta coffee pulp. The experiment consists ...

Cricket powder (Acheta domesticus) as a lean pork meat replacer in cooked sausages
(2023-08-29)
The incorporation of insects in everyday foods is a developing area. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the optimal percent replacement (5.0, 7.5 or 10.0%) of lean pork meat with cricket power (CP) in cooked sausages. For this purpose, the quality and safety were evaluated through the following parameters: pH, moisture, water activity, TBA value, colour (L*, a*, b*), texture and sensory profile, microbiological status and microstructure during seven-day cold storage. The pH of cooked sausages with CP ...

Enhancing crop-livestock systems: Unveiling the impact of leaf stripping on maize hybrid yield in Sundarbazar-Lamjung, Nepal
(2024-03-12)
In local maize agro-ecosystems in Nepal leaf stripping is, historically, practiced as a source of fodder for livestock. However, its effects on hybrid maize have not been studied. The aim of this study was to determine how defoliation below the cob affects the grain and fodder production of hybrid maize and what value the stripped leaves have as fodder for ruminants. Seven hybrid maize cultivars were evaluated for their response to leaf stripping in a randomized complete block design with three replications in ...
