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.

Download or read book Growing Sweet Sorghum as a Source of Fermentable Sugars for Energy written by Gary John Gascho and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies were conducted to evaluate the potential of sweet sorghum as a fuel ethanol feedstock for the southern coastal plain. Several cultural aspects were studied and a methol for rapid evaluation of the fermentable sugar concentrtions in the stalks was developed. The major findings of the studies were. 1. Wray, M81E, and MN1500 were the highest yielding early, medium, and late-maturing cultivars tested. Because of its high sugar concentration and resistance to lodging, Wray was the best single cultivar. 2. On the better agricultural soils of the area, the yield potential is five to six metric tons of total sugars per hectare. 3. The best planting time is in early May. Yields are reduced in plantings after mid-May because of early maturity and damage from the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith). The best harvest time is at the soft, to hard-dough stages of the seed. To maintain a constant supply of high-yielding sweet sorghum for a fuel ethanol plant, it was demonstrated the combinations of cultivars, planting dates, and harvest stages resulted in 95% of maximum sugar yield over a four-month period. 5. Nutrient requirements for sweet sorghum were low in comparisons to corn. No response to P or K was found when the soil test was high or medium for the elements, respectively. For a medium P soil test, yield responses were obtained to at least 25 kg P/ha. For a low K test, response was obtained to 186 kg K/ha. Response was obtained to about 100 kg N/ha. The N application should be split, with about one-half to two-thirds applied as a sidedressing when the sorghum is 30 to 60 cm high. No response was found to a 10-34-0 starter fertilizer, but the P soil test was high in this study. 6. The actual removal of nutrients by a sweet sorghum crop was determined to be 1,5 kg/MT fresh stalks for N, 0.3 for P, 1.8 for K, 0,6 for Ca and 0,3 for Mg. 7. No yield advantage was found in decreasing the row sapcing from 90 cm nor was there as advantage to increasing the population above 75 thousand plants per hectare. 8. The best control of annual grasses was obtained with a propazine plus metolachlor treatment. 9. No positive responses were found to the application of several growth regulators. 10. As automated analysis for determining the concentrations of total sugars in fresh or frozen sweet sorghum stalks was developed using an AutoAnalyzer II.
