Abstract The consumption of poultry meat and eggs is expected to increase considerably in the nearest future, which creates the demand for new poultry feed ingredients in order to support sustainable intensive production. Moreover, the constant improvement of the genetic potential of poultry has resulted in an increased nutrient density in poultry feeds, which limits the possibility to include low quality feed ingredients. Therefore, the feed industry needs new sources of highly digestible protein with a desirable amino acid composition to substitute other valuable but limited protein sources of animal origin, such as fishmeal. With estimated 1.5 to 3 million species, the class of insects harbours the largest species variety in the world including species providing a high protein and sulphur amino acids content, which can be successfully exploited as feed for poultry. The aim of this paper is to review the present state of knowledge concerning the use of insect protein in poultry nutrition and the possibilities of mass production of insects for the feed industry. There is no doubt that insects have an enormous potential as a source of nutrients (protein) and active substances (polyunsaturated fatty acids, antimicrobial peptides) for poultry. It can be concluded, based on many experimental results, that meals from insects being members of the orders Diptera (black soldier fly, housefly), Coleoptera (mealworms) and Orthoptera (grasshoppers, locust, crickets and katylids), may be successfully used as feed material in poultry diets. However, legislation barriers in the European Union, as well as relatively high costs and limited quantity of produced insects are restrictions in the large-scale use of insect meals in poultry nutrition.

Preventative Healthcare

: Food derived bioactive peptides can be generated from various protein sources and usually consist of between 2-30 amino acids with bulky, side-chain aromatic amino acids preferred in the ultimate and penultimate positions at the Cterminal end of the amino acid chain. They are reported to impart a myriad of preventative health beneficial effects to the consumer once ingested and these include heart health benefits through inhibition of enzymes including renin (EC 3.4.23.15) and angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE-I; EC 3.4.15.1) within the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS); anti-inflammatory (due to inhibition of ACE-I and other enzymes) and anti-cancer benefits; prevention of type-2 diabetes through inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV), bone and dental strength, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory effects and several others. Peptides have also reported health benefits in the treatment of asthma, neuropathic pain, HIV and wound healing. However, the structure, amino acid composition and length of these peptides along with the quantity of peptide that can pass through the gastrointestinal tract and often the blood brain barrier (BBB) intact and reach the target organ is important for the realisation of these health effects in an in vivo setting. This paper aims to collate recent important research concerning the generation and detection of peptides in the laboratory. It discusses products currently available as preventative healthcare peptide options and relevant legislation barriers to place a food peptide product on the market. The review also highlights useful in silico computer based methods and analysis that may be used to generate specific peptide sequences from proteins whose amino acid sequences are known and also to determine if the peptides generated are unique and bioactive. The topic of food-derived bioactive peptides for health is of great interest to scientific research and industry due to evolving drivers in food product innovation including health and wellness for the elderly, infant nutrition and optimum nutrition for sports athletes as well as the humanisation of pets. This paper provides an overview of what is required to generate bioactive peptide containing hydrolysates; what methods should be used in order to characterise the health beneficial effects of these hydrolysates and the active peptide sequences, potential applications of bioactive peptides and legislative requirements in Europe and the United States. It also highlights success stories and barriers to the development of peptide containing food products that currently exist.

The usage of soy protein for young monogastric animals is restricted due to potential allergens and high molecular weight. The investigation of fungi fermentation effect on soy protein has been interrupted by substrate sterilization. Virginiamycin at 0.05% was added together withAspergillus oryzaefor solid state fermentation (SSF) in unsterilized soy meal (SM). When compared toA. oryzaeSSF alone, virginiamycin did not cause the interference of fungal fermentation but elucidated the protein degradation. SDS-PAGE results showed that bothαandα′ subunits ofβ-conglycinin were degraded significantly. In addition, western blot results showed that the immunoreactive signals of soy protein were considerably reduced in virginiamycin-added fermentation with unsterilized SM. Furthermore, fungal fermentation increased total protein and essential amino acid contents, suggesting the value enhancement of SM products. Taken together, this study demonstrated for the first time that virginiamycin could help investigate fermentation effect on heat-sensitive soy protein. Fermented SM has several potential applications in feed industry.

Introduction:Probiotic based food products have become very popular nowadays throughout the world. Due to the steep rise in scientific evidences pointing towards the positive health benefits to humans and animals; probiotic microorganisms are being manufactured by the food manufactures in a range of market products. As per today’s era, traditional foods are being anticipated as a delivery vehicle for probiotics and nutraceuticals. These traditional food products are supposed to alter the gut microbial composition, thus leading to improved gut health. Worldwide market of probiotics based food products is increasing exponentially due to the increased interest of consumers towards traditional home remedies.Materials:The traditional products with therapeutic value and having probiotic characteristics have been searched from various research and reviews article from Ayurveda texts (like Charak Samhita, Sushuruta Samhita, Bhavparkasha Nighantu etc.) and Internet sources such as Pubmed, Google Scholar, Scopus etc.Results:Though key research developments are going on in the field of probiotic microbes, the use of these in food and pharmaceuticals is a major challenge for both the industry and science sectors. This article summarizes traditionally used probiotics product along with market value, current status, associated health/nutritional claims and potential applications of probiotics for health care professionals and common man. Moreover, this manuscript has highlighted the use of traditional probiotics strain as today’s medicines.Conclusion:In light of ongoing market trends strengthened with presence of the strong scientific evidences for associating health benefits of these probiotic products, there is a need to conduct studies to designate their quality, safety and efficacy. Furthermore, scientific substantiation with supportive evidences of clinical trials is required to be carried out to use probiotics based traditional medical therapy in a safe and judicious manner.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the market structure and value chain of pearl millet grain and fodder in India. There is a decline in demand for human consumption, with an increase in demand for non-food uses like cattle and poultry feed, raw material for starch and breweries industry. This paper explores alternative channels, uses and value chains of pearl millet grain and fodder. The paper examines in what ways small farmers can benefit from the evolving alternative uses for pearl millet grain in cattle and poultry feed industry, breweries and starch industry. The paper also analyses the impact of aggregators in increasing the efficiency of the value chain. Design/methodology/approach The study collected primary data from farmers, traders, commission agents and exporters and importers with innovative marketing channels with aggregators (Self-Help Groups) and without aggregators to analyze the prospects for improvements in marketing channels and value chain. Findings Given that the production of pearl millet is scattered and thin, there is a lot of scope for market aggregators to increase scale economies to reduce market costs to supply in bulk to food and industrial uses. Although there was some demand for human consumption high-quality grain, most of the future demand will come from cattle and poultry feed industry, breweries and starch industry. To tap these larger potentials, farmers need to aggregate their produce and ensure regular supply in bulk quantity at least to compete the cost with alternative grains like maize and broken rice. Research limitations/implications The research is based on the field-level data collection and observations obtained from Western India. This paper provides insights how the value chain of pearl millet is working and what improvements are needed to make value chain more efficient and inclusive. Although the results are applicable to similar neglected crops and area, more caution is needed. Social implications Through the formation of farmer aggregators, farmers can enhance their bargaining power vis-a-vis industry. Originality/value Till now, there is no study that explored the pearl millet value chain in detail in India, and the paper tries to fill this literature gap.

The Nigerian commercial poultry sector is dependent on commercial feeds.Evaluation of the operational and pricing efficiencies of poultry feed marketing isessential for improving efficiencies in the feed industry and lowering the price ofpoultry products. A multistage sampling technique was used to select the firms studied.Tools used to analyze data collected included index of pricing and operational efficiencies;and regression analysis. The firms studied handled about N251,870,000 of feed perannum, had an annual Inventory Carrying Cost (ICC) of N4,587,762 and an averageICC of N114,694 per firm. The Marketing Costs (MC) for all the firms was N16,813,860per annum while the average MC was N420,347. Major contributors to ICC werestorage; handling and security costs while storage, transportation and capital costswere major contributors to MC. Efforts to minimize costs should therefore be focusedat reducing transportation costs and optimal utilization of storage space. The AverageMarketing Costs (AMC) declined with increase in quantity marketed (QM) while unitprofit increased with QM. Firms therefore need to increase QM. Marketing Margin(MM) and MC were significantly different from each other. Also, QM was a significantexplanatory variable of MM, implying that there was no pricing efficiency in themarket. Relative efficiency increased with QM, suggesting that firms should strive toincrease the quantity of feed marketed. The major contribution of this study is that itprovides information on the components of marketing costs and size economies in thepoultry feed industry in Ondo State, Nigeria.
