“…The most reported fatty acid profile is that of A. lebbeck [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]; see Table 1. Fatty acid profiles of several other species, namely Albizia amara, Albizia harveyi, Albizia julibrissin, Albizia odoratissima, Albizia procera, Albizia saman, Albizia versicolor, and Albizia zygia have also been presented in the literature [19,23,24,[31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41] as listed in Table 2. The data in Tables 1 and 2 indicate that C18:2 appears to be the most common fatty acid in Albizia seed oils followed by C18:1, with one report, however, of approximately 80% C18:2 in A. julibrissin appearing excessive [19].…”

“…Albizia is used as an overcrop for coffee, providing the shade necessary for the latter to grow . The seed oil of Albizia julibrissin has been suggested as a source of biodiesel , although no reports seem to exist on the production of biodiesel from any Albizia species. Otherwise, very little to no information on the utilization of Albizia seed oils appears to be available.…”

Some fatty acid profile differences observed for the same species can likely be ascribed to seeds obtained from different geographical locations around the world with varying climate, soil, and harvest time conditions.…”

In this work, the fatty acid profiles of the seed oils of Albizia lebbeck and Albizia saman (Samanea saman) are reported. The oils were analyzed by GC, GC-MS and NMR. The most prominent fatty acid in both oils is linoleic acid (30-40%), followed by palmitic acid and oleic acid for A. lebbeck and oleic acid and behenic acid for A. saman. Both oils contain slightly more than 30% saturated fatty acids with stearic, eicosanoic and tetracosanoic acids present as well as odd-numbered saturated fatty acids in minor amounts. Furthermore, for the first time, epoxy fatty acids are reported in the fatty acid profiles of Albizia seed oils. Coronaric acid (9,10-epoxy-12(Z)-octadecenoic acid) is the major epoxy fatty acid at approximately 3-4% of the fatty acid profiles with minor amounts of vernolic (12,13-epoxy-9(Z)-octadecenoic acid) and 9,10-epoxystearic acids also detected. The results are compared to previous literature on the fatty acid profiles of other Albizia seed oils. The coronaric acid content of Albizia resembles that of Acacia species with both genera belonging to the Fabaceae family. The mass spectrum of the pyridylcarbinol (picolinyl) ester of coronaric acid is reported.

“…The purpose of this paper was to explore the macroscopic grain security situation and its influencing factors in Bangladesh from the perspective of supply and demand, so as to enhance the pertinence, applicability and comprehensiveness of grain security research in Bangladesh. In the 1990s, Deng proposed the grey relational analysis as an impact assessment method, which measured the degree of similarity or difference between two sequences through the relational grade [36][37][38]. Based on its basic principles, it was a promising and effective method to assess the influencing factors of grain security.…”

Ensuring the grain supply-demand balance and achieving grain security had been the main tasks for the government of Bangladesh. On the supply side, Bangladesh’s supply of grain products has increased substantially, with an average annual growth rate of 1.99 million tons in 1998–2018. Domestic grain production, especially rice production, accounted for the largest proportion in its structure. However, under the constraints of resources and environment, imports and international aid were needed to ensure a stable and sustainable grain supply. On the demand side, Bangladesh’s demand for grain products continued to grow at an average annual rate of 2.09 million tons and its structure was constantly diversified. In recent years, domestic grain production has fully met the grain demand for food use, but the overall grain supply dependence on foreign gradually increased. From the analysis of the influencing factors, the grain supply, especially the domestic production of rice and maize, had the greatest impact on the balance of grain supply-demand in Bangladesh. Moreover, multiple cropping index, chemical fertilizer application per hectare and irrigation rate were the three main factors affecting grain production. As a typical agricultural country, Bangladesh’s grain security was faced with challenges, such as high population density, insufficient cultivated land resources, international grain trade and frequent natural disasters. It is suggested that its government should strengthen scientific and technological research, adjust agricultural structure, improve the efficient utilization of agricultural resources and grain circulation systems, and balance the grain demand between food use and indirect use, so as to achieve complete grain self-sufficiency and overall grain security.

“…The use of rapeseed and other crops as feedstock for biofuel production has increased in recent years as an alternative to fossil fuels (Xue et al, 2013). In the literature, wheat has relatively frequently been analyzed, although rapeseed, peas, and rye have thus far received little attention.…”
