“…The vast food preparations incorporating groundnut to improve the protein level has helped in no small way in reducing malnutrit1ion in the developing Countries (Asibuo et al, 2008). Groundnut seed contains 44 to 56% oil and 22 to 30% protein on a dry seed basis and is a rich source of minerals (P, Ca, Mg and K) and Vitamins (E, K and 11B group) (Savage and Keenan, 1994).…”

Dakuwa is a traditional snack produced from blends of sorghum groundnut and tigernut. A three factor three level full factorial experimental design were adapted to determine the effect of extrusion on some functional properties of dakuwa extrudate using twin screw extruder (SLG 65-III Model). The effects of extrusion variables barrel temperature (90 0 C100 0 C 110 0 C) feed composition (50:20:30 50:25:25 50:30:20 ratios of sorghum groundnut to tigernut), feed moisture content (18% 22% 26%) on the water absorption index (WAI); water solubility index (WSI); water hydration capacity (WHC) and viscosity from sorghum groundnut and tigernut raw mixtures and the extruded were studied extrusion significantly increased the water absorption index (WAI) from 2.05 to 2.17; water solubility index WSI from 4.49 to 9.14 and water hydration capacity WHC from 1.05 to 1.54 raw to extrudate while viscosity decreased from 11.60 to 8.33 mpas. The optimum levels of the variables were obtained. The optimal combination of barrel temperature of 90 0 C feed composition of (50:20:30 sorghum groundnut tigernut) and 18% feed moisture resulted in optimal WAI of 2.49g Water perg Sample. The optimal combination of 110 0 C barrel temperature 50:30:20 feed composition for sorghum groundnut and tigernut and 22% feed moisture resulted in optimal WSI of 12.13%. The optimal combination of 100 0 C barrel temperature (50:30:20 feed composition for sorghum groundnut and tigernut) and 26% feed moisture resulted in optimal WHC of 4.95%. The optimal combination of 90 0 C barrel temperature (50:20:30 feed composition sorghum groundnut tigernut) and 18% feed moisture resulted in optimal viscosity of 9.23mpa.

“…This is more so as ruminants utilize these anti-nutritional factors through the activities of the micro fauna and flora in their rumen. Nutritional studies have shown that phytic acid is a chelating agent for divalent cations (Ca, Mg, Fe and Zn) and consequently interferes with mineral bio-availability (Savage, 1988). Tannins may not always be anti-nutritional in ruminants as they may enhance amino acids absorption in the small intestine (Barry and McNabb, 2002) via a "by-pass process" (Aletor and Fasuyi, 1997).…”

The energy, protein and minerals contained in agricultural wastes can be made available for feed supplementation of ruminants through production of multinutrient blocks (MNBs). Fibrous residues obtained from leaf protein concentrate of Leucaena leucocephala and Gliricidia sepium leaves fractionation were used to produce MNBs as follows: Leucaena + Poultry manure (LPMNB); Leucaena + Urea + Poultry manure (LUPMNB); Leucaena + Urea (LUMNB); Gliricidia + poultry manure (GPMNB); Gliricidia + Urea + poultry manure (GUPMNB) and Gliricidia + Urea (GUMNB). The proximate analysis and energy contents of multinutrient blocks (MNBs) showed that GUMNB contained the highest crude protein while GPMNB contained the least. The ash content was least in LPMNB and highest in GPMNB while LUMMB contained the least crude fibre but highest in GUPMNB. The ether extract values were 44.1+0.01, 65.1+0.01, 70.2+0.01, 81.9+0.01, 91.1+0.15 g kg -1 for LUMNB, LPMNB, LUPMNB, GPMNB, GUPMNB, respectively while the nitrogen free extract (NFE) values varied from 247.3+1.11g kg -1 DM in GUMNB to 523.8+6.28g kg -1 DM in LPMNB. The gross energy (GE) contents for GPMNB, LPMNB, LUPMNB, GUPMNB, LUMNB, GUMNB were 11. 67, 12.74, 13.58, 14.56, 15.33, respectively.Calcium was the most abundant (737.50g kg -1 to 971.40g kg -1) but the values were higher in Leucaena-based MNBS. The anti-nutrients of the multinutrient blocks are total polyphenols (as tannic acid equivalent), Phytin-P and oxalate.

“…According to the nature resources and economic condition of the region, water-saving agriculture is the most effective way to solve the problem in water shortage in agriculture and to make sustainable use in water resources and increase the water use efficiency of crops. Groundnut crop (Arachis hypogaea L.) is one of the leading oilseed crop, as its seeds contain high amounts of edible oil (43-55%) and protein (25-28%) on a dry seed basis [2]. Even though it is a fairly droughttolerant, production fluctuates considerably as a result of rainfall variability.…”

The pot experiment was carried out during September 2015 to January 2016 at instructional farm, College of Agricultural Engineering, UAS Raichur under rain shelter to study the effect of different water regimes, (i.e. T 1 :100, T 2 :90, T 3 :80, T 4 :70, T 5 :60 and T 6 :50) per cent of water application with available moisture holding capacity on grain yield and water use efficiency. Completely Randomized block design with four replications was used in this study. The results showed that there was significant difference between the yield and (WUE) under different levels of irrigation. The total irrigation water applied were (i.e., 211.98, 243.02, 225.78, 155.09, 135.51 and 105.62 of the AMHC. Furthermore, the result showed that the treatment of 90 per cent of Available moisture holding capacity (T 2 ) seemed to be better adapted to product a high crop yield with acceptable yield coupling with water use efficiency in this region.
