Abstract:

Background. Wild vegetables serve an important purpose in the health and diet of many people residing in the rural areas. Various traditional practices associated with their processing and consumption are uncommon and unknown to the present generation, resulting to their underutilization. Methods. Qualitative data were obtained through focus group discussions (FGDs), key informant interviews (KIIs), and participant observation. Using a checklist and questionnaire, a total of 120 individuals from 120 randomly selected households in Kilimanjaro and Morogoro regions were interviewed. Results. Und

Abstract:

Plants have always been a vital source of medicines and other essential products that have been a part of human life ever since time immemorial. Pharmacognosy and its associated aspects have been going through constant evolution and investigation with every generation revealing different and new pharmaceutical properties of plants and their products. The horticulture sector of India has witnessed a great demand of exotic fruits and vegetables in the last decade. These are either imported or artificially introduced in an exotic and non-indigenous habitat. A large number of these exotic plants w

Abstract:

Traditional vegetables in Tanzania have been underutilized by farmers and neglected by research and development programmes. In the framework of the project ‘Promotion of Neglected Indigenous Vegetable Crops for Nutritional Health in Eastern and Southern Africa’ led by the World Vegetable Center (AVRDC) and partners, focus group meetings were conducted in 10–12 villages in each of four districts of north-east Tanzania, which differed in ethnicity as well as in altitude, climate and soil conditions. Farmers named 10–34 different traditional vegetables per village, summing up to an overall of 102

Abstract:

Increasing longevity, along with an aging population in Europe, has caused serious concerns about diet-related chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and certain cancers. As recently noted during the coronavirus pandemic, regular exercise and a robust immune system complemented by adequate consumption of fruit and vegetables are recommended due to their known health benefits. Although the volume of fresh vegetable consumption in the EU is barely growing, demand for diversified, nutritious, and exotic vegetables has been increasing. Therefore, the European market f

Abstract:

Vegetable farming is the most practiced urban agriculture in Ghana. A previous study of our laboratory revealed poor microbial quality of, and presence of Salmonella on, leafy green vegetables grown or sold in Accra, Ghana. The aims of this study were to determine agricultural practices of urban vegetable farmers and the association between agricultural practices and microbial safety of vegetables produced. A survey was conducted among 102 farmers from 12 farming areas who produced exotic and indigenous leafy greens in Accra, Ghana to identify their farming practices. It was observed that wate

Abstract:

The consumption of adequate quantities of fruits and vegetables is essential to a healthy life. The growing body of evidence on fruits and vegetable consumption mainly focus on urban areas with very scanty information and data on rural/peri-urban areas. This study was carried out in the peri urban interface of Ibadan. It examined the access of people to fruits and vegetables and the factors which affect their consumption. Through multi-stage sampling technique, two hundred respondents were selected from four peri-urban communities and data were obtained through the use of pre-tested questionna

Abstract:

The study assessed consumers’ preference for common exotic vegetables (<em>cabbage, cucumber, watermelon, lettuce and spring onion</em>) among consumers in Oyo and Kano State, Nigeria. A random sampling technique was used to collect primary data on consumers’ characteristics, preference for the vegetables and budget share on the vegetables. Data collected were analyzed through the use of frequency distribution, percentages and linear regression model. The results showed that most of the respondents in Oyo State were females (53.3%) while most respondents in Kano State were male (85%). Most of

Abstract:

African leafy vegetables (ALVs) are thought to contain an immense variety of antioxidants, which may provide nutritional and health benefits. However, there is limited, robust, and comparable information describing their nutritional composition. The aim of this study is to determine the antioxidant potential of selected ALVs [black jack (Bidens pilosa L.) and amaranth (Amaranthus hybridus L.)] in comparison with exotic leafy vegetables (ELVs) [lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), green cabbage (Brassica oleracea), red cabbage (B. oleracea var. capitata)].

While the greenhouse mainstays of nursery plants, tomatoes, capsicum, cucumber, salad vegetables and herbs will continue to expand in volume, newer, speciality and niche market crops are growing in popularity. These include new cut flower species, potted plants and ornamental crops, and a growing trend in the commercial production of medicinal herbs using high-technology methods such as aeroponics.

Abstract:

Most farmers in urban and peri-urban areas in West Africa have limited land, so practice farming systems targeted at the production of high-value crops used in urban diets, especially exotic vegetables. Moreover, rapid urban population growth and adverse climate change are causing increased demand for food and water, leading to water scarcity in those cities. The intense pressure of increasing food demand in cities pushes small farmers to depend on untreated wastewater, undecomposed manure, and pesticides for their production, which negatively affect the health of the population.

Vegetable plays a key role in food and nutrition security in Ghana as the country’s food system shifts from food quantity to diet quality and health benefits. This chapter looks at the role vegetables play in the diets of humans in ensuring food and nutrition security. Traditional locally available underutilized vegetable crops as well as exotic vegetable crops could be utilized to improve nutrition and health. One of the strategies for promoting vegetable production is the development and adoption of innovative and modern technologies to address major challenges impeding the advancement of ve

Abstract:

Postharvest losses are rampant due to lack of proper storage conditions and handling of the fresh food products. The perishable nature of fruits and vegetables makes their shelf life limited due to some extrinsic factors such as some environmental conditions and preservation conditions as well as some intrinsic factors such as respiration rate, ethylene production and transpiration. Among the other postharvest technologies available, edible coatings seems to be one novel method which has been verified to have a positive and safe approach to extending the shelf life of products.

Abstract:

People have manipulated the natural environments of South America for agricultural purposes for several millennia. While agriculture is strongly affected by the physical attributes of a place—soil, water, climate, biota, and topography—agriculture changes a landscape’s physical and biological characteristics and processes. Agriculture may involve short- and long-term conversion of forest to cropland and pasture, modification of topography and drainage, and the introduction and propagation of exotic species. Soil erosion, much of which is caused by agriculture, is a major concern in South Ameri
