Snail meat is an alternative source of rich protein in the tropics and an important part of many diets. Despite its wide popularity as a cheap source of dietary protein, very little investments have been made into the processing of snail meat in terms of processing equipment and other value addition technologies. Up till now, many farmers utilize manual methods in breaking snail shells which are very demanding and tiring. Furthermore, existing technology of snail shellers are not only expensive but the technology is beyond the reach f many local farmers thereby discouraging many from exploring the abundant potentials of the processing value chain. Hence, this study designed and evaluated a snail shell cracking machine using standard engineering procedures... |

This study made an attempt to develop value added products (bay leaf tea powder, bay leaf saffron tea powder, bay leaf basil tea powder, bay leaf mint sparkle powder, bay leaf spice cubes and bay leaf spice mix) with underutilised forest produce bay leaf. The developed products were evaluated for sensory acceptability and best acceptable products (bay leaf tea powder and bay leaf spice cube) were evaluated for nutrient, antioxidant and anti nutrient composition in comparision with fresh bay leaf. The results indicated that bay leaf tea powder was rich in ash (18.67 ± 1.21) and protein (12.91 ± 0.81) content and bay leaf spice cube was rich in crude fiber (10.50 ± 2.79) content. Highest amount of proline (4.15 ± 0.11), phenols (8.73 ± 0.10), ascorbate... |

La riqueza fitogenética presente en el estado de Tabasco es muy amplia y sin embargo no ha generado un desarrollo social y económico permanente y óptimo para quienes están en permanente contacto con dicha riqueza, destacando el colectivo conformado por las mujeres rurales en México, quienes resguardan conocimiento clave sobre manejo y aprovechamiento de especies vegetales representativas de sus respectivas regiones. Por esta razón, se propuso el desarrollo de una metodología que permitiera desarrollar habilidades y destrezas en mujeres rurales y emprendedores en temas de agregación de valor con la finalidad de conformar empresas sociales basadas en agroindustria en especies vegetales representativas de Tabasco. Asimismo, con la intención de conocer los... |

Using survey data from 110 randomly selected honey producers from two divisions in Baringo this paper analyzes the constraints and drivers of value addition in honey, an economic activity with a potential to improve household livelihoods but whose development has remained rudimentary. Baringo District undergoes frequent and prolonged drought that impacts on household livelihood assets. The livelihoods have traditionally been agro-based but due to variations in climatic conditions, crop production has been very low. Livestock production has also been adversely affected by these trends, leaving honey production as a viable alternative for smallholder farmers since it is less dependent on, or affected by climatic variations and is not resource intensive. This... |
