Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Six Sigma-Modell wurde in den 80er Jahren von Motorola entwickelt. In den letzten Jahren wurde es in Amerika verstärkt als Methode zur Steigerung von Effektivität und Effizienz eingesetzt. Six Sigma - das ist ein Katalog erprobter Managementtechniken und -methoden zur Fehlerreduzierung, Produktivitätssteigerung und zur Steigerung von Gewinn und Shareholder Value. Dieses Modell soll Unternehmen helfen, die Rentabilität zu steigern, indem sie sich auf das Verhältnis zwischen Produktionsfehler, Produktionsausbeute, Zuverlässigkeit, Kosten, Gesamtstückzeit und Zeitplan konzentrieren. Die Anwendung des Six Sigma-Modells heisst für jedes Unternehmen, einen tiefgreifenden Wandel zu durchlaufen, und zwar einen Wandel, der aus einer technischen und einer kulturellen Komponente besteht. Während der Vorgängertitel "The Six Sigma Revolution" vom gleichen Autor die technische Komponente behandelt, konzentriert sich " "Making Six Sigma Last" in erster Linie auf Aspekte der Unternehmenskultur und geht folgenden Fragen nach: Wie schafft man die Voraussetzungen für die Einführung von Six Sigma? Wie erkennt man die vier Gegenargumente für eine Six Sigma-Einführung und wie überwindet man diesen Widerstand? Wie managt man Six Sigma-Systeme und -Strukturen und setzt diese erfolgreich ein?

Book excerpt: Sorghum Biochemistry: An Industrial Perspective explores the many uses for sorghum in industry and biofuels. Not only does it offer a detailed understanding of the physical and biochemical qualities of the grain, it also takes an in-depth look at the role sorghum plays in such industries as brewing and ethanol production and the mechanics of post-harvest processing and value addition. Sorghum has long been an important staple in Africa and Asia, but its value goes far beyond its uses in human and animal consumption. Sorghum is also used in many industries, including waxes, packing material, wall board, ethanol, beverages, and brewing, and one variety called sweet sorghum has also been used as a bioenergy crop. Sorghum Biochemistry: An Industrial Perspective offers a closer look at how the grain is used in such a variety of ways, and how we can continue to optimize its potential. - Provides detailed biochemical studies on grain sorghum to inform researchers grappling with similar issues - Offers foundational information on the quality and composition of sorghum as a grain - Covers a variety of uses for sorghum in many industries, including food and beverage, energy, and brewing - Includes photos and illustrations to enhance the understanding of processes and sorghum biochemistry

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scenes of starvation have drawn the world's attention to Africa's agricultural and environmental crisis. Some observers question whether this continent can ever hope to feed its growing population. Yet there is an overlooked food resource in sub-Saharan Africa that has vast potential: native food plants. When experts were asked to nominate African food plants for inclusion in a new book, a list of 30 species grew quickly to hundreds. All in all, Africa has more than 2,000 native grains and fruitsâ€""lost" species due for rediscovery and exploitation. This volume focuses on native cereals, including: African rice, reserved until recently as a luxury food for religious rituals. Finger millet, neglected internationally although it is a staple for millions. Fonio (acha), probably the oldest African cereal and sometimes called "hungry rice." Pearl millet, a widely used grain that still holds great untapped potential. Sorghum, with prospects for making the twenty-first century the "century of sorghum." Tef, in many ways ideal but only now enjoying budding commercial production. Other cultivated and wild grains. This readable and engaging book dispels myths, often based on Western bias, about the nutritional value, flavor, and yield of these African grains. Designed as a tool for economic development, the volume is organized with increasing levels of detail to meet the needs of both lay and professional readers. The authors present the available information on where and how each grain is grown, harvested, and processed, and they list its benefits and limitations as a food source. The authors describe "next steps" for increasing the use of each grain, outline research needs, and address issues in building commercial production. Sidebars cover such interesting points as the potential use of gene mapping and other "high-tech" agricultural techniques on these grains. This fact-filled volume will be of great interest to agricultural experts, entrepreneurs, researchers, and individuals concerned about restoring food production, environmental health, and economic opportunity in sub-Saharan Africa.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spread of modern varieties and hybrids of pearl millet and sorghum that began in the mid-1960s has had an important impact on small farmer welfare in India. The success and sustainability of these improved cultivars resulted from three types (or periods) of interventions by the Indian government: (1) increased investments in crop improvement by national and international agricultural systems during the 1970s; (2) development of efficient seed systems, with the gradual inclusion of the private sector in the 1980s; and (3) the liberalization of the Indian seed industry in the late 1990s. In addition to increased overall production levels of sorghum and millet, there have been substantial yield gains in semi-arid regions as well as improved cultivars adopted in some of the poorest areas of India. The innovations of new, hybrid technology have not been limited to the Green Revolution crops; they have also had significant impact on the productivity of small-farmer households growing dryland crops, such as millet and sorghum in India.

Book excerpt: This book is mainly based on the latest research results and applications of sorghum food in human diet and gets good health benefits from it. Sorghum has several medical properties and cures several diseases as mentioned in the index. Sorghum grains can be converted in various indigenous food products and include in the daily human diet. Some of the specific sorghum components when added to foods, antioxidants control rancidity development, retard the formation of toxic oxidation products, maintain nutritional quality and extend the shelf-life of products. Sorghum diet is useful for curing cancer, diabetic disorder and so many other aliments also. In addition, sources of other beneficial components of sorghum are also discussed in detail. Sorghum is the only one cereal sustain under drought situation and gives definite yield under rain-fed condition. During current climate change situation sorghum is the best drought resistant crop for getting definite amount of grain yield.
