Abstract:
Aflatoxin contamination in groundnut production negatively affects health and trade outcomes. Aflatoxin contamination can occur at any stage along the groundnut value chain. However, the stage immediately after harvest has proven to be the most critical stage in aflatoxin management. This study presents knowledge, perceptions and practices in aflatoxin management during groundnut drying and storage among smallholder farmers in Malawi. Using probability proportionate to size random sampling techniques, the study sampled 150 smallholder farmers from three districts in the Central Region of Malaw

This study determined the aflatoxin levels in processed groundnut products in the Tamale metropolis. A simple random sampling technique was used to obtain roasted groundnuts, groundnut paste, kulikuli, and kulikulizim samples from three markets in the Metropolis. A total of 36 locally processed groundnut products were obtained and analyzed for total aflatoxin concentration, using the Reveal Q+ aflatoxin test method. All the groundnut products sampled tested positive with values ranging from 1.7 to 519 ppb. The most aflatoxin-contaminated product was kulikuli followed by kulikulizim. The roaste

Abstract:
In India, Agriculture is the backbone. In a country like India, farmers grow groundnuts on a small scale. The major problem in groundnut production in countries like India is the lack of groundnut processing machines available to farmers. In the beginning, the workers separated the groundnut pods from their plants. They simply remove groundnut pods by their hands and separate them from the plants. The output obtained from this method, was very low because it was a very time-consuming process. It was also a boring work for the worker. The traditional method of separating pods from groundnut pla

Abstract:
Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea, L.) is grown in diverse environments throughout the semi-arid and sub-tropical regions of the world. Poor yields of 500-800kg/ha are attributed to poor agronomic practices, pests and diseases. The major disease reported in Kenya is Groundnut rosette disease (GRD). But recent observations in the field showed that the crop has varied and severe symptoms in addition to those caused by GRD. This required deeper analysis to establish the causal agents. Groundnut samples with virus-like symptoms were collected from western Kenya in 2016. Total RNA was extracted using All

The hydrophilic state of Bambara groundnut seeds had decreased after 60 days, but not to original hydrophobicity, and also the recovery rate is slower than those observed on synthetic polymer.
