Abstract:

The study specifically investigated farm size efficiency differentials of bio-fortified cassava production in Nigeria. Data were collected through a cross-sectional survey of bio-fortified cassava producers in Nigeria. The estimated coefficients of the parameters of production variables for small scale bio-fortified cassava farm size (land, herbicide and fertilizer) played a major role in bio-fortified cassava production on a small scale in Nigeria. For the medium and large scale bio-fortified cassava farm size, production variables (land, labor and fertilizer) and (land, labor, herbicide and

Abstract:

This study examined the preferential adoption of bio-fortified pro-vitamin A yellow cassava varieties as smart feeding for rural households. It employed cross-sectional data obtained from 318 farmers in Southeast Nigeria. Data were analysed using percentages, binary logistic regression, Mean, and standard deviation. The study found that the most highly adopted bio-fortified pro-vitamin A cassava varieties were: TMS07/0593 (92.6%), TMS 1371 (80%), and TMS 0539 (77%). The study revealed that access to farmland, farming experience, contact with extension agents, access to vitamin A yellow cassava

Abstract:

The study examined the costs and returns to bio-fortified cassava production and forecast the future farm size of bio-fortified cassava production in Oyo State, Nigeria. A multistage sampling technique was used to select our respondents. Primary data were used for the study which were collected through a well-structured questionnaire. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive, Markov chain, and budgetary analysis. The result of the study showed that TMS 01/0593, TMS 01/0539 and TMS 01/0220 were the mostly grown varies of bio-fortified cassava varieties in Oyo State, Nigeria. The result of

Abstract:

The success of bio-fortification of cassava for production of vitamin A rich cassava granules commonly known as garri depends on the consumers’ acceptance. The study aimed at determining the quality of bio-fortified and traditional cassava granules. Four sample types were used for the study. This includes the bio-fortified sample and three traditionally prepared samples. The cassava granules samples were analyzed for functional properties, nutrient and anti-nutrient composition and sensory quality. Data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and means were separated using Dunc

<em>The paper reviewed the potentials of consuming bio-fortified cassava among rural and urban households in Nigeria. It explained the concept, prospect, health, nutritional benefits and opportunities presented by bio-fortification of cassava. </em><em>Bio-fortification is the process of increasing the bio-available micronutrient density of staple crops through conventional plant breeding and modern biotechnology to achieve a measurable and positive impact on human health. The prospect of bio-fortification through biotechnology provides the nation with ample opportunities to alleviate food and

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Profitable farming is a prime target of all farmers regardless of the scale of production adopted and the veritable opportunity to attain the threshold of bumper harvest is not unconnected with the adoption of new technology. Bio-fortified vitamin A cassava remains the best option for farmers to experience improvement in cassava performance in both the quality and quantity terms and they are encouraged to adopt it in order to improve their households’ welfare. The survey was launched to investigate the effect of bio-fortified vitamin A cassava on the poverty status of the farming hous

Abstract:

Carotenoids in bio-fortified gari are degraded by light and oxidation during storage resulting in fading of their yellow color. In this study, gari from yellow-root (bio-fortified) cassava varieties (YCVs) were evaluated for color change during storage in two seasons. About 400 g of fresh gari samples of five YCVs (IITA-TMSI011368, IITA-TMSI011371, IITA-TMSI011412, IITA-TMSI070539 and IITA-TMS-I070593) and white-root variety (TMEB419-check) were packaged in transparent plastics to ensure exposure to light. The samples were evaluated monthly for color change using a chart with a scale of 1 (whi

Abstract:

Light degrades carotenoids and thus the color of bio-fortified gari during storage. This study was therefore conducted to evaluate the effect of exposure of bio-fortified gari to light during storage on its color. Gari samples obtained from the processing of fresh storage roots of three yellow root cassava varieties (TMSI011368, TMSI010593, and TMSI010539) and a white root variety (TMS30572) as check were packaged in three replicates in transparent white plastics containers (light condition) and blue plastics containers wrapped in black polythene bags (dark condition). These were stored on an
