Towards crop communities: exploring wheat diversity, wheat-pea species mixtures and farming practice in a food system context
(2022-06)
This thesis combines experimental work on heterogeneous crop populations (HP) and species mixtures (SM) with a social scientific and participatory approach. Chapter 1 introduces crop communities as a concept to integrate multiple approaches to diversify farming systems. HPs provide intraspecific and SM interspecific diversity in crop communities. A key challenge for the genetic improvement of HPs, especially for root traits is to combine effective selection to improve HPs while maintaining intraspecific diversity. ...

Physico-chemical Characterization of Four Species Indonesian Mangrove Fruits as Food Source
(2022-09-30)
Carbohydrates in flour and starch are essential ingredients for the food industry, often used as a thickening, gelling, bulking, and water retention agents. In Indonesia, mangrove fruits have traditionally been used as carbohydrate source. However, studies related to the physicochemical of fruit, flour, and starch of mangrove as a food source are still minimal. This study reported the Physico-chemical characteristic of four species of Indonesian mangroves fruits, namely Avicennia sp., Bruguiera sp., Rhizophora sp., ...

A scoping review on the presence of antibiotic residues in milk and the government strategies to control the use of antibiotics in milk industry in India
(2022-10-15)
In dairy farms, antibiotics are administered for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes. Lack of adherence to withdrawal periods and irrational use of antibiotics in the feed may lead to antibiotic residues (AR) in milk. Evidence suggests that the risk of AR in the milk is believed to be higher in developing countries due to multifarious reasons. The issue of residues in milk is predominantly concerning in India, as it has the largest consumer base in the world. Many studies have identified that consuming milk ...

Proximate biochemical parameters and antioxidant capacity of eight loquat genotypes (Eriobotrya Japonica Lindl.) from Zegzel Valley of Morocco
(2022-10-15)
The loquat fruit is considered as a very precious product due to its economic and health benefits. For this reason, the evaluation of their biochemical profile and antioxidant activity has become required. Indeed, healthy fruits are collected from eight loquat genotypes belonging to four regions of the Zegzel Valley. As a results, loquat fruit analysed showed a great pomological and biochemical richness. From the eight genotypes, the ‘Z1’ produced the biggest fruits (54.55 g) while ‘TA6’ had the highest sugar content ...

Prevalence of some enteric pathogens in table eggs with special reference to E. coli O 157: H 7E
(2022-10-15)
The present investigation was designed to study the incidence of some enteric pathogens in table eggs with special references to E. coli O157: H7. A total of 250 table eggs samples (75 baladi hen ҆s, 75 white farm hen ҆s, 75 brown farm hen ҆s and 25 duck eggs) were collected randomly from poultry farms, groceries, supermarkets and street vendors in El Fayoum city, Egypt. Each baladi hen ҆s egg sample represented by five eggs, while each farm hen ҆s and duck eggs represented by three eggs. The samples were examined ...

The effect of Lactobacillus acidophilus on the changes in the acidity of probiotic milk during storage
(2022-09-20)
The probiotic products are functional products for human health. To study the changes in the acidity of milk containing probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus, three containers containing 3 liters of sterilized low-fat milk with 1.5% fat prepared from Mihan Company were considered three groups. The results showed that the resulting changes in milk containing Lactobacillus acidophilus bacteria due to acidity index were recorded in a two-hour period to reach the acidity of 42 °C in (milk) in the incubator at 38 ...

Marktstudie zu regionalen Bio-Lebensmitteln in Hessen.
(2022)
Die vorliegende Studie gibt einen ersten Einblick in die aktuelle Situation der landwirtschaftlichen Öko-Erzeugung, der Verarbeitung und des Handels ökologischer Lebensmittel in Hessen. Am Beispiel von ausgewählten Wertschöpfungsketten (WSK) wird untersucht, welche Schwächen und Stärken und welche Herausforderungen für regionale Produktion, Verarbeitung und Handel von ökologischen Lebensmitteln bestehen. Ziel der Studie ist es, die aktuelle Situation darzustellen, Schwachstellen zu identifizieren und Ansatzpunkte zu ...

Comparison of linear discriminant analysis, support vector machine and artificial neural network in classifying Nigerian local turkeys based on plumage colours using biometric traits
(2022-10-18)
The ability of linear discriminant analysis (LDA), support vector machine (SVM), and artificial neural network (ANN) models to differentiate biometric traits of Nigerian local turkeys was investigated in this study. The biometric traits (bodyweight, body length, breast girth, thigh length, shank length, keel length, wing length, and wingspan) in 200 (20-week-old) turkeys were measured. Seventy percent of the datasets were used to train the three models, with the remaining 30% being used to test their performance. All ...
