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 ...

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 ...

Partial purification of tannase enzyme produced by Bacillus licheniformis isolated from local soils
(2023-12-28)
Tannase is an enzyme that causes hydrolysis of a group of tannins (gallo-tannins) to gallic acid and glucose. This enzyme is of importance due to its numerous applications in many fields, such as in the food industry by enhancing tea and coffee flavour and improving the quality of fruit juices rich in tannins. Gallic acid is applied in the drug industry, and production of antioxidants is used in the oil industry. In this study, Tannase was produced by locally isolated Bacillus licheniformis using spent tea as substrate ...

Delaying Ripening of Cantaloupe fruits by Various Treatments During Storage
(2023-12-28)
This study was conducted for two seasons 2021 and 2022 to investigate the influence of Putrescine (PUT) at 0.1 or 0.2% and Spermine (SPM) at 0.1 or 0.2% and Chitosan (CS) at 1000 or 2000 ppm and in addition untreated control on quality attributes and delaying ripening of cantaloupe fruits (cv. Primal) during storage at 5º C for 28 days. The results indicated that all treatments were effective in reduced weight loss and color changes and maintained, fruit firmness, TSS, sugar content, total carotenoids and overall ...
