View Products www.bluemoonacres.com 215-794-3093 2287 Durham Road, Buckingham PA 11 Willow Creek Dr, Pennington NJ Fall and Winter 2020-2021 Blue Moon Acres farm was started by Jim and Kathy Lyons in 1992 as a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) farm, growing a small array of vegetables and greens at the home farm in Buckingham, PA. Now, twenty-seven years later, Blue Moon Acres is known as the premier supplier of micro greens to the top restaurants in New York and Philadelphia. The farm has grown to include numerous varieties of micro greens, specialty greens, edible flowers, and produce in the greenhouses and fields in Buckingham and Pennington, NJ. Blue Moon Acres uses only natural methods in the growing process- no synthetic fertilizers, chemical pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, fertilizers, GMO’s or growth regulators are ever used. At our Pennington, NJ farm, new ideas, technologies, equipment, and techniques are being implemented to grow plants that naturally resist disease and pests, increase soil carbon and build soil structure, increase soil microbial/ fungal populations and diversity, and solubilize nutrients previously locked up in the soil. Healthy soil = healthy crops = healthy people = healthy ecology. In April of 2018, Blue Moon Acres was voted 2018 NJ Farm Local Hero by Edible New Jersey magazine readers for helping to ‘sustain the healthy bounty that defines and flavors our Garden State’ (out of 9000 NJ farms). The premise now is the same as it was at the beginning to grow good-quality food that is in accordance with sustainable agriculture practices.

The rice 14 blast fungus Pyricularia oryzae, which limits rice production in all rice-growing areas, is structured into 15 multiple lineages. Diversification and the maintenance of multiple rice blast lineages have been 16 proposed to be due to separation in different areas and differential adaptation to rice subspecies. 17 However, the precise world distribution of rice blast populations, and the factors controlling their 18 presence and maintenance in the same geographic areas, remain largely unknown.

  • Prodwrkshp 3.Qxd
    California Rice Production Workshop, v15 Variety Selection and Management Introduction and History Since its beginning in 1912, California’s rice industry limited its produc - tion and marketing largely to a few short and medium grain japonica varieties, developed from stocks originating in Japan and China. These varieties produced good yields of quality rice in the dry, temperate cli - mate of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys. For the grower, the choice of variety to plant was relatively simple because the few varieties available were similar in performance, yield potential and milling qual - ity when properly managed. Included were Colusa, Caloro and Calrose released in 1918, 1921 and 1948, respectively, and Earlirose, a productive, early maturing, proprietary variety, released in 1965 which soon became a popular variety for cold areas and/or late plantings. These were the major rice varieties grown in California until the early 1970’s. Then, the variety picture began to change significantly. A powerful impetus for this was the enactment of California Rice Research Marketing Order that established the California Rice Research Board in 1969. This grower initiative provided significant and regular funding to hasten development and release of new varieties. The medium grain variety CS-M3 was released in 1970 and the short grain variety CS-S4 in 1971, from rice hybridizations made in 1946 and 1957 at the Rice Experiment Station (RES) at Biggs, CA. CS-M3 gained wide acceptance and competed with the older Calrose for acreage. But, CS-S4, though an improvement over Caloro, was not widely grown because of its suscep - Publicly devel - tibility to low temperature induced sterility.

  • RICE and GRAINS
    RICE and GRAINS RICE is one of the most important foods in the world, supplying as much as half of the daily calories for half of the world’s population. Scientific name: Oryza sativa Categories: short grain, medium grain or long grain o Short grain – has the highest starch content, males the stickiest rice. o Long grain – lighter and tends to remain separate when cooked. Another way that rice is classified is according to the degree of milling that it undergoes. This is what makes a BROWN RICE different than white rice. BROWN RICE – often referred to as whole rice or cargo rice, is the whole grain with only its inedible outer hull removed. Brown rice still retains its nutrient-rich bran and germ. WHITE RICE – is both milled and polished, which removes the bran and germ along with all the nutrients that reside within these important layers. SOME OF THE MOST POPULAR VARIETIES OF RICE IN THIS COUNTRY INLCUDE: ARBORIO – a round grain, starchy white rice, traditionally used to make the Italian dish risotto. BASMATI – an aromatic rice that has a nutlike fragrance, delicate flavor and light texture. SWEET RICE – almost translucent when it is cooked, this very sticky rice is traditionally used to make sushi and mochi. JASMINE – a soft-textured long grain aromatic rice that is available in both brown and white varieties. BHUTANESE RED RICE – grown in the Himalayas, this red colored rice has a nutty, earthy taste. FORBIDDEN RICE – a black colored rice that turns purple upon cooking and has a sweet taste and sticky texture.

The main compounds in black rice were anthocyanins (3.5 mg/g), with cyanidin 3-O- glucoside and peonidin 3-O-glucoside predominating, followed by flavones and flavonols (0.5 mg/g) and flavan-3-ols (0.3 mg/g), which comprised monomeric and oligomeric constituents. Significant quantities of γ-oryzanols, including 24-methylenecy- cloartenol, campesterol, cycloartenol, and β-sitosterol ferulates, were also detected along with lower levels of carotenoids (6.5 μg/ g). Red rice was characterized by a high amount of oligomeric procyanidins (0.2 mg/g), which accounted >60% of secondary metabolite content with carotenoids and γ-oryzanol comprising 26.7%, whereas flavones, flavonols and anthocyanins were <9%. Brown and white rice contained lower quantities of phytochemicals, in the form of flavones/flavonols (21−24 μg/g) and γ- oryzanol (12.3−8.2 μg/g), together with trace levels of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin. Neither anthocyanins nor procyanidins were detected in brown and white rice.

Rice is the major staple foods consumed in Asia. It has been reported that rice consumption has a positive association with the risk of chronic diseases. The effects of rice variety and preparation process on chemical characteristics of rice were investigated in the current study. Three Thai rice varieties, Khao Dok Mali 105 (KDML 105), Sao Hai (SH) and Riceberry (RB), underwent parboiling or non-parboiling as well as polishing or non- polishing prior to chemical property analysis. It was found that parboiling process possessed greater content of mineral as indicated by ash content as well as fiber and total phenolic content (TPC) and 2,2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity when compared to non-parboiling treatments, whereas the reduction in amylose and TAC content, GI value and starch digestibility were observed in this sample. On the other hand, polishing process led to reduction in ash, amylose, fiber, TPC and TAC content and DPPH values.

  • Value of Wholegrain Rice in a Healthy Human Nutrition
    agriculture Review Value of Wholegrain Rice in a Healthy Human Nutrition Marina Carcea Research Centre on Food and Nutrition (CREA-AN), Council for Agricultural Research and Economics (CREA), Via Ardeatina, 546, 00178 Rome, Italy; [email protected]; Tel.: +39-06-5149-4429 Abstract: Rice is one of the most widely consumed cereals in the world. The husks of harvested, unprocessed rice are not digested by humans and need to be removed to obtain edible grains, whereas the bran can be partially (brown rice) or totally removed (white rice). Brown rice is a wholegrain cereal and, as such, is known to have beneficial effects on human health. Recent epidemiological studies have shown that the consumption of whole grains can reduce the risk of metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and some types of cancer. However, white rice is preferred for reasons connected to appearance, taste, palatability, ease of cooking, tradition, safety, shelf-life, and lack of awareness about its benefits and availability. In this review, the latest scientific reports regarding the nutritional composition of brown rice and the evolution of the technology for its production will be briefly reviewed together with research on nutritional implications of brown rice consumption also in relation to cancer development in humans. A specific chapter is devoted to pigmented rice which, thanks to its composition, has attracted the growing interest of consumers worldwide. The need for further studies to help promote the consumption of wholegrain rice are also discussed. Keywords: brown rice; nutritional quality; brown rice technology; pigmented rice; glycemic re- sponse; cancer Citation: Carcea, M.
