IntroductionStarch is an important part of many foods. It serves as the principal source of energy for many food preparations. 1 Starches are present in many tropical vegetables, cereals, legumes, fruits, rhizomes, seeds, stems, roots, tubers and corms of plants, as microscopic granules having characteristic shapes and sizes where they serve as a nutritious carbohydrate source. Starch is a common, affordable and easily available material that is utilized in many areas of life for the manufacture of industrial products such as paper, confectionaries, paint, beverages, textile, adhesive, pharmaceuticals and plastics. It is a safe, renewable, biodegradable, biocompatible and edible polymer of glucose that occurs naturally having profound usage in food and polymer science. [2][3][4] It is a complex microparticle that is composed of two key constituents, amylose (20-30%), which is linear and amylopectin (70-80%) which is highly branched. It is often associated with water, protein and lipids, phospholipids, soluble and insoluble fiber, and some minerals that exist in minute quantities but play a vital role in its the physicochemical properties. 2,4,5 Both amylose and amylopectin are polysaccharides formed by α-condensation of dglucose units. 5 Starch has a heterogeneous and semi-crystalline granular structure.

This study assessed the losses in agricultural lands and enrichment of other land usages in agricultural area in Minna and environs in the state capital of Niger state, Nigeria. Data captured using Landsat Multispectral Scanner (MSS) (1990), Thematic Mapper (TM) (2000-2010) and Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) (2000, 2010 and 2020) used to quantify LULC changes. A post-classification matrix prepared to assess the modification and conversion in LULC from 1990 to 2020. The significant modification in LULC observed as agricultural lands and vegetation underwent noticeable decline by 714.39km2 and 578.94km2, respectively whereas built up area increased substantially to a value of 96.91km2. About 12.29km2 agricultural land lost to barren land and 12.83km2 converted to water bodies. Finally, the encroachments of vegetation and built up area in agricultural area caused substantial decreased the available land for agricultural activities. Remote sensing data provide useful for estimations of agricultural land loss on a regional scale.
