“…Other compounds, such as hydroxycinnamic acids (chlorogenic, caffeic, coumaric, and ferulic) and flavones (apigenin, tricin, and luteolin), in NCS have been identified as additives for green tea beverages, spicy beverages, and others (Anand et al 2020 ; Dwiloka et al 2020 ). The preservation of antioxidant bioactive compounds benefits from thermal processing techniques (Wang et al 2020 ) and technologies instead of clarification process optimization (Zhu et al 2020 ) and transformation processes such as spray drying (Alarcón et al 2021 ), and neuroprotective properties of NCS in Parkinson’s disease patients have also been found (Cifuentes et al 2021 ).…”

Food science innovation depends on consumers’ needs and is currently seeking functional food with health effects. Non-centrifugal cane sugar (NCS) is known for its potential health effects, but there is a lack of holistic analysis on technological advancement and socio-economic and market trends for decision-making in the development of the technology. The aim of this article was to analyse the research trends, recent patents, and market trends and niches for NCS to structure an NCS technological roadmap. Scientometric, bibliometric methods, and global and local market information on NCS were used. Comprehensive analysis of the worldwide research trends and patents on NCS processing and of the growth of the main niche markets for Colombian NCS exports in the last five years was conducted. Finally, with the information obtained, an NCS technological roadmap was structured, which can be used as a tool for planning innovation processes and supporting the development of new research using market information and new norms forged by the COVID-19 pandemic for Colombian case. Furthermore, the methodological design could be used for other NCS producer countries.

“…The phenolic content in NCS was determined between the range of 0.4% and 0.6% and the flavonoid content was between 0.2% and 0.4%, respectively. Phenolic acids like vanillic acid (0.70–1.45 µg/100 g), protocatechuic acid (0.36–0.94 µg/100 g), chlorogenic acid (2.08–3.82 µg/100 g), syringic acid (1.08–2.80 µg/100 g), ferulic acid (0.50–0.95 µg/100 g), and p‐coumaric acid (0.69–1.35 µg/100 g) were found in the different NCS samples (Alarcón et al, 2021). A comparative analysis among granulated sugar, light jaggery block, regular jaggery block, muscovado sugar, brown sugar, and cane honey was done in terms of TPC assay, total flavonoid content (TFC) assay, and high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (Barrera et al, 2020).…”

“…Another study on total phenol content (TPC) was measured for refined sugar, raw sugar, jaggery, and molasses, and the result showed 3285 µg GAE/g of phenol content in jaggery (Iqbal et al, 2017). Alarcón et al (2021) investigated the chemical characteristics and colorimetric properties of noncentrifugal cane sugar (traditional NCS bricks, granulated NCS, powdered NCS, syrup of 50/70° Brix (S50) obtained via different processing technologies (Alarcón et al, 2021). The phenolic content in NCS was determined between the range of 0.4% and 0.6% and the flavonoid content was between 0.2% and 0.4%, respectively.…”

Foods as medicine have been utilized from ancient civilizations and shared from generation to generation as dietary health practices. It provides therapeutic assistance along with nutrition and health benefits. Presently, food products, diet, and individual health are receiving a lot of attention and are in high demand. In this context, jaggery is an important part of food and diet in the rural areas of many regions/countries. It is made up of sugarcane juice and is recognized as a natural source of nutraceuticals due to the presence of different types of essential amino acids, minerals, vitamins, and antioxidant potential along with other biological applications. In this updated review article, we discussed the newest research and information on traditional uses, nutraceutical profiling, chemical composition, and biological applications of jaggery. The published data were collected from different scientific search engines including PubMed, Springer Link, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Wiley online library. Given these findings, we can conclude that jaggery is a strong source of nutraceuticals and its nutraceutical potential can be enhanced with value addition and other scientific interventions. Detailed investigations on preclinical (in silico, in vitro, and in vivo) studies along with its actual mechanism of action in depth are required. Additionally, clinical trials also should be conducted to validate the preclinical studies.

“…It is one of the primary raw materials for sugar production and one of the essential raw materials for bioenergy [2]. It exhibits dual characteristics of an agricultural product and a product of the light industry [3]. Since sugarcane growth depends on sufficient sunlight, high temperature, and much precipitation, most sugarcane cultivation is distributed in tropical and subtropical regions [4,5].…”

Extraction of Sugarcane Planting Area Based on Similarity of NDVI Time Series

Timely and accurate estimation of the sugarcane planting area is of vital importance to the country's agricultural production and sugar development. In remote sensing crop mapping based on spectral similarity, there will be have a phenomenon of foreign matters with the same spectrum by obtaining an accurate crop reference curve for crop identification, limiting mapping accuracy. In this study, we improved the spectral reconstruction method based on singular value decomposition (SR-SVD). A decision tree model was established based on the similarity of the sugarcane Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) time series curve and the fluctuation range of NDVI in different growth periods. Using the Sentinel-2 (Level-2A) image data set to extract sugarcane planting area in two regions of Chongzuo City, Guangxi, China, the overall accuracy was higher than 96%, respectively. The results show that through the spectral similarity and the determination of the threshold fluctuation range, not only high-precision mapping of sugarcane can be achieved, but the problem of "same spectrum with different objects" can also be solved. Therefore, this method can provide accurate information on the sugarcane planting areas and technical support for monitoring the structure of sugarcane planting in the region.
