Abstract:

The study investigated the marketing practices, channels of sheabutter distribution and performance using multi stage sampling techniques to select three local government area for the study in Oyo State. The results showed about 91% of the respondents were female, the average age of the respondents was 35.5 years. Most (92.5%) of the respondents were married with average household size of 8 members. Marketing efficiency was 135% which implies that the respondents covered the cost of marketing and made a margin above 100%. Unavailability of sheabutter due to deforestation and credit unavailabil

Abstract:

Shea tree is an economic plant with factors such as genetic variations and environmental conditions responsible for its variations. The present study was aimed at establishing the physicochemical properties and genetic variation of shea tree from northern Nigeria. The plant materials were harvested from Bosso (A), Ngaski (B) and Yamaltu-Deba (C). The sheanut B had the highest potassium content while sodium and magnesium were higher in C, with no significant difference between the calcium and copper contents of A and C. The percentage yield of sheabutter B (37.20%) was higher than A and C. Iodi

Abstract:

Sheabutter processing and marketing is a major traditional enterprise among women in the Northern Ghana. The use of mobile technology has increased rapidly in many developing countries including Ghana. Looking at the unique marketing and other forms of transactions among women in the shea industry, it is essential for the industry to adopt mobile technology to ensure smooth transaction and market transformation. Mobile money technology adoption and shea butter marketing among women was studied by using cross-sectional survey data from Tolon District in Northern Ghana. A total of 250 women shea

Abstract:

Gatamwarwa is a village under Chibok Local Government Area of Borno State in North eastern Nigeria. Sheabutter production is one of the occupations of women in this village. A study was carried out on the traditional method of processing sheabutter in this village. Seven major operations are involved in the production process- collection of nuts, sorting/burning of nuts, cracking of nuts, winnowing to separate the kernel from the shell, cleaning of kernel using rag, crushing of kernel to form paste using mortar and pestle and extraction of fat. All the operations are currently carried out manu

Abstract:

Soap is sodium or potassium salt of fatty acid produced by saponification reaction using sodium or potassium hydroxide. It is used for cleaning, bathing, and washing. Soaps were produced from neem seed oil and sheabutter oil using the cold process method with slight modification. The physicochemical properties (acid value, saponification value, peroxide value, iodine value and moisture content) of the oil were determined and it showed that the values are within the standard specifications. The quality of the soaps were also assessed by determining the physicochemical properties such as; free c

A lesser known vegetable fat, sheabutter fat (SBF) was compared with palm oil (PO) as a dietary ingredient during the rearing phase of pullets. Black Harco grower- pullets (12 weeks old) were assigned to diets in which PO and SBF each quantitatively replaces maize at 2.5 and 5.0% and a fifth diet containing 2.5% each of both PO and SBF. At the 20th week, they were fed a common layer diet until sexual maturity was attained on all treatments. Results at the growing phase did not reveal any significant effects (P>0.05) on feed intake, weight gain, feed/gain and feed cost/weight gain. Sexual ma

Abstract:

The utilization of Shea butter cake (SBC), a by-product of fat extraction from sheabutter nuts (Butyrospennum paradoxum) was compared with Palm Kernel Cake (PKC) to establish its potential as a poultry feedstuff.

The poverty situation in northern Ghana is a major challenge to sustainable development. As a result of socio-cultural factors, women are vulnerable and their poverty situation is even more overwhelming. Development agencies, Governmental and Non- Governmental Organizations have adopted and implemented different strategies aimed at reducing poverty in these areas. Micro-credit delivery to the poor especially women is one of these strategies that seems to be making impact towards improving the livelihoods of the rural poor women.

The infestation of sheabutter tree, Vitellaria paradoxa Gartner. F., by the pallid emperor moth, Cirinaforda Westwood, was studied from 2004-2006 in Aye Gber and Akaa Pila in Benue State, Nigeria. Observations were made on adult emergence from soil, copulation behaviour, oviposition, incubation period, larval density, feeding within tree canopy, damage, and natural enemies. Ten leaves were randomly selected from the lower, middle, and upper strata of the crown and the numbers of larvae on them were counted and transformed to (x + 0.5)1/2 for analysis.
