This study evaluated the nutrient and anti-nutrient content of four rice varieties in Port Harcourt metropolis. Four rice varieties (Tomato gold TG, Mama’s pride MP, Ultimate gold UG and daily choice DC) were used in this study. The rice varieties were purchased, milled into fine flour and evaluated for proximate, mineral and anti-nutrient analysis using standard methods. Proximate composition of the rice varieties revealed that moisture content ranged from 11.51-12.80%, ash (0.45-0.60%), fat (0.39-1.39%), crude protein (5.73-6.07%), crude fibre (0.90-6.85%) and carbohydrate (73.67-80.09%). Mama’s pride rice variety contained higher ash and fat contents while Tomatoes gold had significantly higher crude fibre. On the other hand, ultimate gold rice variety contained higher protein and carbohydrate; however, ash, protein and moisture contents did not vary significantly (p>0.05) between the rice varieties. Mineral composition of the rice varieties also showed that magnesium content ranged from 6.28-9.63 mg/100 g, calcium (3.74-8.23mg/100g) and iron (1.50-5.48mg/100g). The concentration of these mineral elements was found to be superior in ultimate gold rice variety. Phenol content of the rice varieties ranged from 9.92-14.58mg/100g, phytate (1.22-1.53g/kg), saponin (5.86-6.37%), tannin (47.03-66.89 mg/100 g) and flavonoid (2.29-2.80%). Ultimate gold rice variety also contained higher concentrations of phenol and tannins while saponin content was higher in daily choice rice variety. Phytate content on the other hand did not vary significantly (p>0.05) between the rice varieties. The result therefore revealed that ultimate gold rice variety contained a considerable amount of nutrients and should be highly recommended to consumers for derivation of the above-mentioned nutrients.

Background: Lablab Bean had been considered as an excellent source of protein (20-25%) with it’s two different groups, like Wal (highly fibrous) and Papdi (less fibrous). Cooking alters the level of nutrient content and as well as the antinutrient content and based on this concept the following experiment had been carried out. Methods: The study was carried out in Navsari Agricultural University, Gujarat, India, in 2016-17. Two different groups of Indian bean (Lablab purpureus L.) including Wal group (Guj.W.1, Guj.W.2, 125-36, NIBD-15-05, NIBD-15-10) and Papdi group (GNIB-21, NIBD-15-09, NIBD-15-10, NIBD-14-01, NIBD-14-04) were analyzed for their nutrients and anti-nutritional contents for raw and cooked (boiling) vegetables. Result: Papdi group was proved to be comparatively rich in some nutrient contents like ascorbic acid, flavonoid, Fe, Mn whereas Wal was found to be rich in the other nutrient contents like crude fibre, carbohydrate, S, Zn, Cu, â carotene etc. Both groups performed well for antioxidant activities and protein content. Hence, it was difficult to detect the particular group distinctly and reported that Wal was found to be comparatively nutritionally rich after cooking.

White rats were thymectomized neonatally. After 60 days, no alteration was noted in the plasma or testis magnesium level. On the other hand, a marked decrease was observed in the magnesium content of muscle (−23%) and of bone (−19%). The injection of thymosin reversed these changes. These findings suggest that a correlation between the thymus and the muscle is exerted by a protein factor (thymosin), and that the thymus may act on sex glands through an indirect pathway.

One attempt to create a processed product of fishery products in the form of finished goods which main raw material are fishery products is by processing it into crackers. Crackers are generally made from tapioca flour as a source of starch with the addition of spices and water which have a low nutrient content. Addition of nutritional crackers can be done by adding fish meat. While on the other hand, the type of fish as the main raw material for making fish crackers greatly influences the color, texture and taste of fish crackers. As in the case with squid crackers which have distinctive taste and performance when compared to other fish crackers. To see the potential of the squid cracker business, it is necessary to conduct research to see whether the processing of squid into squid crackers is able to provide increased income or in other words whether the squid cracker business is feasible or not and how much added value from processing squid to squid crackers. This study aims to look at the feasibility of squid cracker business in terms of financial aspects and to determine the amount of added value obtained from processing squid into squid crackers. The research showed that the development of a squid cracker business was feasible and prospective to be carried out.

A survey and laboratory study was conducted to estimate rice straw production of local rice varieties from South Kalimantan. Two local rice varieties (Siam Adil and Pandak) cultivated in a tidal swamp paddy field in Tanah Laut regency were harvested at the same time to estimate the dry matter production of rice straws and to obtain the rice straws samples. Rice straws samples were analysed to determine the percentage of botanical parts and nutrient contents, including the contents of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, and crude fiber.  Results showed Siam Adil rice straw had a lower percentage of leaf but had higher percentage of stem compare to Pandak. The botanical fraction of Pandak was similar to the improved rice variety (Ciherang). Siam Adil produced higher rice straw dry matter (7.95 tonnes/ha) compare to Pandak (5.83 tonnes/ha). There were no significant differences in the contents of dry matter, crude protein, and crude fibre of both local varieties. However, local rice straws had lower crude protein and higher crude fiber contents compared to the improved rice straw. In conclusion, local rice varieties potentially produced higher rice straw biomass but had lower nutrient quality. Thus, pretreatment is necessary to improve the utilization of local rice straw as a ruminant feed.

The study evaluated the proximate composition and sensory properties of fruits (banana and tomatoes) and vegetables (Lettuce and cabbage) from an open market and a shopping mall to ascertain the effect of the two environments on the sample quality. Standard analytic procedures were used in sample analysis. Open market samples had moisture, protein, fat, ash, crude fibre and carbohydrate content of 76.56-92.96, 0.25-1.24, 0.03–0.91, 0.56–1.17, 2.20–3.34 and 1.17 – 14.13 % respectively, while values for shopping mall were 80.62-94.10, 0.16–0.29, 0.06–0.21, 0.40–0.86, 1.54–3.87 and 0.91–14.28 % respectively. The degree of likeness for the appearance, flavour (aroma/taste), texture (firmness/crunchiness) and overall acceptability of the samples from the open market ranged from 6.60 - 7.00, 4.90 - 6.35, 5.25 -5.95 and 5.80 - 6.10 respectively, and those of the shopping mall were 6.55–7.25, 4.70–6.65, 5.45–5.95 and 5.85–6.30 respectively. The environment had significant (P≤0.05) influence on the proximate composition and sensory properties of the fruits and the vegetables. Fruits and vegetables from the open market had significantly (P≤0.05) higher nutrient content. The environment of the shopping mall provided the low temperature which improved upon the moisture and sensory attributes of the samples as evidenced in higher degree of likeness of samples from the shopping mall. This revealed the importance of storage and sales of fruits and vegetables under chilled storage.

Nitrogen Free Extract

By the usual Weende method the vegetable membrane substances are divided most arbitrarily into two groups, crude fibre and nitrogen-free extract. The bulk of lignin falls in the latter fraction which also contains the valuable cell enclosure carbohydrates, sugars and starch. Many misconceptions even amone eminent scientists still prevail concerning the crude fibre and the N-free extract. It is too often forgotten that N-free extract also contains lignin, and that in some cases crude fibre is a more valuable food fraction than the N-free extract. However, the per cent figure of crude fibre, especially when calculated of the dry matter, is a useful criterion in estimating the value of foods. N-free extract, on the other hand, is only a misleading concept and should be omitted. It would, be best to leave it out also from the food tables.

The most effective method to increase rice productivity in one location is to adapt the best combination between the high yielding rice variety and the optimum plant spacing. The objectives of this experiment to observe plant growth characteristic of each high yielding rice variety under each plant spacing to increase rice productivity. Field experiment was conducted at Toroh Regency, Grobogan District, Central Java during 2014 dry season. Treatments were arranged according to a split plot design, with three replications. The main plots (Plant spacings), namely T1- Equal spacing/Tegel 25 cm x 25 cm; T2- Legowo 2:1 (25---50) cm x 12,5 cm; T3- legowo 4:1 empty (25 – 50) cm x 12,5 cm dan T4- legowo 4:1 full (25 – 50) cm x 12,5 cm. The sub plots (variety): Ciherang, Inpari 10, Inpari 15 and Inpari 16.<br />The yields of the rice varieties in this experiment are highly significantly different. It was found one introduced variety produced higher yield than Ciherang, namely Inpari 16 (5.93 + 0.43 ton 14% dry grain/ha). The two other introduced varieties (Inpari 10 and Inpari 15), produced 5.03 + 0.19 and 5.00 + 0.22 ton 14% dry grain/ha, the same or slightly lower than Ciherang. The highest yield occurred when Inpari 16 planted using Legowo 4 : 1 empty, namely 6.57 ton 14% dry grain/ha, consistently produces higher yield than the other varieties do at each plant spacing treatment. Rice yields of Ciherang were relatively more stable under different plant spacings compared with the other varieties. Inpari 10 at harvest stage having 19 tillers per hill under equal spacing 25 cm x 25 cm, decreased to 12 tillers per hill under Legowo 4 : 1 full. Ciherang with the medium size of grains have 1000 grain weight of 23.9 gram, and Inpari 10 25.3 gram. Based on the results of this experiment it is concluded that Inpari 16 planted under Jajar Legowo 4 : 1 empty (25 – 50) cm x 12.5 cm is the best. However, it is suggested to be evaluated acceptability by the local farmers.

The object of this series of investigations is to secure detailed information concerning the composition, digestibility and nutritive value of pasture grass in its different stages of growth. The results which were obtained in these respects by cutting the herbage of the experimental pasture plot at weekly and at fortnightly intervals have been described in previous communications. During the season of the present experiment, the trials have been carried a stage further by the adoption of a system of cutting at 3-weekly intervals. The main findings of the 1928 investigation are recorded below:(1) Chemical composition of 3-weekly pasture cuts: The adoption of a more lenient system of cutting at 3-weekly intervals led to a slight lowering of the percentage of crude protein in the grass and a slight raising of the percentages of crude fibre and N-free extractives. On the other hand, no corresponding effect was noted in respect of the ether extract, SiO2-free ash, lime and phosphate, the percentages of these constituents being very similar in the weekly and 3-weekly pasture samples obtained in 1928. The falling off of the percentage of crude protein in the 1928 3-weekly-mown herbage, as compared with the weekly and fortnightly-mown herbage of 1925 and 1927 respectively, was not wholly the consequence of the more lenient system of cutting, but was also due in part to the protein-depressing influence of the droughty periods which were experienced in the 1928 season.
