Description:
The fourth volume of the journal Sustainable Food Production starts from the investigation concerned with assessment of the traditional and sustainable harvesting methods on the collection of two leading non-timber forest products Griffonia simplicifolia Baill. and Xylopia aethiopica A.Rich. in Liberia. The further studies dealt with the preliminary evaluation of the microbiological quality of the peanuts produced in Nigeria for pathogens such as Salmonella spp., Listeria spp., Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria, as well as mold, yeast and total aerobic mesophilic microflora; estimation of the antifunginal activity of volatile compounds from essential oil of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) for the control of Botryodiplodia theobromae causing rot of white yam; comparison the fermentation characteristics of kombucha from black tea or green tea as nitrogen sources and white sugar or brown sugar as carbon sources in a 30-day fermentation time. Finally, it can be found a review on the available information on the quality of palm oil obtained locally in Imo state, Nigeria.
