  • Assessment of Grain Safety in Developing Nations
    ASSESSMENT OF GRAIN SAFETY IN DEVELOPING NATIONS by José Rodrigo Mendoza Jiménez A DISSERTATION Presented to the Faculty of The Graduate College at the University of Nebraska In Partial Fulfillment of Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Major: Food Science & Technology Under the Supervision of Professors Andréia Bianchini and Jayne E. Stratton Lincoln, Nebraska December, 2020 ASSESSMENT OF GRAIN SAFETY IN DEVELOPING NATIONS José Rodrigo Mendoza Jiménez, Ph.D. University of Nebraska, 2020 Advisor: Andréia Bianchini Grains are the most widely consumed foods worldwide, with maize (Zea mays) being frequently consumed in developing countries where it feeds approximately 900 million people under the poverty line of 2 USD per day. While grain handling practices are acceptable in most developed nations, many developing nations still face challenges such as inadequate field management, drying, and storage. Faulty grain handling along with unavoidably humid climates result in recurrent fungal growth and spoilage, which compromises both the end-quality and safety of the harvest. This becomes particularly problematic where there is little awareness about health risks associated with poor quality grain. Fungi are contaminants of maize and some can produce toxins, known as mycotoxins, that both devalue crop marketability and have detrimental health effects, especially to those malnourished. As some households depend on their harvest for self- consumption, losses due to fungi endanger their food security. To abate the threat posed by mycotoxigenic fungi on maize among developing nations, this research was conducted as a compilation of works in several countries. More specifically, it describes agricultural practices currently in use in developing nations, provides an overview of mycotoxin prevalence and approaches that can be used to improve grain safety post-harvest through proper storage.

  • Maize Processing in Tanzania: Prospects for SME Participation
    Maize Processing in Tanzania: Prospects for SME Participation Project Brief, June 2020 ES/S0001352/1 Dr H.B.Lunogelo, Dr Hazel Gray and Professor Fortunata Makene www.iiap.info Project Overview Innovation and Inclusion Industrialisation in Agro-Processing is a two-year collaboration between researchers from the University of Edinburgh, the University of Johannesburg, and the Economic and Social Research Foundation, Tanzania. The project is a comparative study conducted across Tanzania and South Africa focusing on three value chains: maize meal, citrus and dairy. The three aims of the study are: First, to describe the factors that determine innovation and inclusion in agro-processing Second, explain the challenges to promoting SME participation in agro-processing value chains Third, to use these findings to support industrial policy formulation at the national and regional level In this project brief, we set out the key issues arising from our scoping work on maize milling in Tanzania. 1: Summary As an economic crop, maize accounts for 74.3% of cereals production and 66% of all crops harvested annually (NBS, 2017)1. It contributes about 40% of calorific foods consumed (Bymolt et.al., 20172). Maize flour is used to make a meal popularly known as ‘ugali’. SMEs play a major role in the midstream of the maize value chain. Micro and small-scale maize millers are particularly prominent in rural settings and small trading centres but they also operate in larger towns and cities. The maize milling business has also attracted medium and large- scale investors with national and regional market outreach for their milled and packaged products.

Khamila1*, D. S. Ndaka1, A. Makokha1, F. Kyallo1, P. K. Kinyanjui1, O. J. Kanensi1 and J. Mwai2 1Department of Food Science and Technology, Faculty of Agriculture, Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, P. O. Box 62000-00100, Nairobi, Kenya. 2Ministry of Health (Government of Kenya), P. O. Box 30016-100, Nairobi, Kenya. Received 15 December, 2018; Accepted 28 February, 2019 Maize is the most widely consumed staple food by the Kenyan population. Its wide consumption and centralized processing make it an appropriate fortification vehicle to supply essential micronutrients to the population. The legislation was enacted in 2012 that makes it mandatory for all commercial maize mills in Kenya to fortify the maize flour with specified micronutrients as a public health effort to reduce the prevalence of micronutrient deficiencies. However, there is limited information on the current status of maize milling and implementation of the flour fortification programme by these mills. A cross- sectional study was therefore carried out to characterize the commercial maize mills and determine the status of flour fortification in Kenya. Questionnaires were used to collect data. Information was obtained from 22 large-scale, 25 medium-scale and 31 small-scale mills. These mills had an installed capacity of 6084 metric tons/day of flour using roller and hammer mills.

  • Effect of Processing on Total Amino Acid Profile of Maize and Cowpea Grains
    www.sospublication.co.in Journal of Advanced Laboratory Research in Biology We- together to save yourself society e-ISSN 0976-7614 Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2013 Research Article Effect of Processing on Total Amino Acid Profile of Maize and Cowpea Grains Malomo Olu*, Alamu, A.E. and Oluwajoba, S.O. *College of Food Science, Bells University of Technology, Ota P.M.B. 1015, Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria. Abstract: During the processing of cereal grains, a substantial proportion of the nutrients are lost, most especially the proteins in the form of the smallest moiety called amino acids. The objective of this study is to investigate the proportional loss due to processing, in order to throw more light in external fortification of the processed grains as may be necessary for the future. This investigation carried out the amino acid profile of drum dried; freeze dried and spray dried products of processed maize and cowpea grains in order to establish the after effects of these processing methods on the amino acid profile of the residual products. The processed methods investigated have been reported to be ideal for the preservation of processed grains in the powdered forms and amino acids availability in the products will determine the final protein nutritional value of the processed food products. Keywords: Cereal grains processing, Cereal proteins, Sprouting, Drying. 1. Introduction Kent (1980) classified the series of operations in dry maize milling as follows: 1.1 Modern Processing 1.

Sorry about the corona pandemic and congratulations on, heroically, fighting this enemy in spite of all the hardships it has caused us. Since March, 18th 2020, I, myself, am like a prisoner in Nakasero and Entebbe. I have managed to sneak out a few times to Karamoja for the Marbles factory, to Jinja for the rising waters of the Lakes and Rivers, Nakasongola for the fire-fighting vehicle manufactured by the Luwero Industries, the factories in Namanve, to Kasese for the landslides and, recently, to Kasubi and Lubigi for the new market and the new anti- flooding channel respectively. Only half of the Ministers meet every Monday in order to keep the numbers small and spread out in your big Entebbe State House Hall that normally seats 600 people. The Members of Parliament had to move out of the building to a big tent outside and have small numbers at a time. 1 We have to wear masks all the time and they are quite uncomfortable. However, health is wealth, the English say. Amagara gakira amagana (life is more important than wealth), the Banyankore say. Asiika obulamu, tassa mukono; here, the Luganda proverb uses the imagery of food (okusiika). It says that when you are frying life, you never relax the arm, different from food frying where you can relax your arm.
