“…However, as revealed in most studies, gaps are still prevalent in understanding or exploring the nutritional and health benefits of jackfruit seeds, as in most cases, they remain significantly underutilized on an industrial scale. This is irrespective of evidence that more than 15% of the fruit's weight is made up of seeds, and increased research in this area could be a promising and profitable byproduct for sustainability (Sibi, 2022). To address this knowledge gap, a study in The Pharma Innovation Journal explored the possibility of using jackfruit seeds to make an affordable and healthy bread spread with desirable properties such as texture, flavor, and aroma (Habibah et al, 2021).…”

“…Other studies have explored the use of jackfruit seeds to create innovative products, recognizing their untapped potential. This not only minimizes waste and postharvest losses but also diversifies business opportunities (Waghmare et al, 2019;Sibi, 2022). Considering every aspect, jackfruit seeds have the potential to be a sustainable and adaptable product.…”

IntroductionThe seeds of jackfruit are often overlooked and discarded globally, leading to the underutilization of this valuable resource. This study explored the potential of utilizing underutilized jackfruit seeds as an alternative source of human subsistence by investigating the availability of jackfruit, the utilization and underutilization of seeds at the household level, and the types of subsistence activities in the community.MethodsWe used a case study of Byse village in Karnataka, India, to understand this topic. A mixed research approach was used. First, a descriptive research design was employed to collect and describe the data, while a correlation design was used to examine the relationships among variables related to jackfruit seed utilization. Second, a bibliometric analysis was conducted to explore global trends in jackfruit seed utilization.Results and DiscussionThe findings indicated that agriculture, particularly arecanut farming followed by paddy rice cultivation, was the primary means of subsistence in the community. While human consumption of jackfruit seeds is statistically significant, it has a detrimental effect on seed utilization in the community (r = −0.295, p = 0.008). The study also revealed that consuming jackfruit seeds in a semidry form had a positive and significant influence (r = 0.345, p = 0.002) compared to eating them in a fresh form. Consequently, more focus could be placed on encouraging the consumption of semidry jackfruit seeds as a preferred option among residents. Despite the abundance of jackfruits, their seeds are rarely used, with a mean utilization score of 1.77. Since jackfruit seeds are limited in their application and are readily available, they could be utilized as an alternative source for sustainable human subsistence. sustainable human subsistence.

Coconut water is the clear liquid found inside coconuts, famous for rehydrating after exercise or while suffering from a minor sickness. The essential issue tackled in this paper is how to estimate the appropriate stage of maturity of coconut water, which is a time-consuming task in the beverage industry since, as the coconut age increases, the coconut water flavor varies. Accordingly, to handle this issue, an adaptive model based on Fuzzy Neural Network and Sperm Whale Optimization, dubbed FNN–SWO, is developed to assess coconut water maturity. The Sperm Whale Optimization (SWO) algorithm is a meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. It is embedded in this model along with neural networks and fuzzy techniques (FNN system), which can be employed as an essential building block in the beverage industry. The proposed FNN–SWO model is trained and tested utilizing fuzzy rules with an adaptive network. In contrast, the SWO algorithm is adopted to determine the optimal weights for the fuzzy rules. Three subsets of data divided according to three levels of coconut water maturity-tender, mature, and very mature, are used to validate the combined FNN–SWO model. Depending on these three subsets of data, a comparison of the proposed FNN–SWO model has been conducted against a set of the most common conventional techniques. These techniques include Support Vector Machine, Naïve Bayes, FNN, Artificial Neural Network, as well as their embedding with other meta-heuristic optimization algorithms. For various key performance indicators, such as recall, F1-score, specificity, and accuracy, the proposed FNN–SWO model provides the best prediction outcomes compared to the current time-consuming techniques. The dominance of the proposed FNN–SWO model is evident from the final findings compared to its time-consuming peers for estimating coconut water maturity on time. As a result, the proposed FNN–SWO model is an effective heuristic for locating optimal solutions to classification problems. It can thereby be reassuringly applicable to other similar prediction problems. Additionally, it would benefit the scientific community interested in evaluating coconut water.
