Physical and organoleptic characteristics of Limmu coffee landraces, southwestern Ethiopia
Abstract Background Coffee (Coffea arabica L.) is one of the world's most valuable agricultural commodities, with Ethiopia recognized for producing high‐quality Arabica coffee. Limmu landrace coffees are prized for their distinctive flavor profiles; however, systematic evaluation of their raw and cup quality traits remains limited.

Food quality profile of fermented cassava dough: A tool for the value chain upgrading
Abstract Background Agbelima is a fermented cassava mash, which is then cooked into dough. The key quality attributes are color, odor, stretchability, and sour taste. To succeed in upgrading agbelima value chain, there is a need to determine the instrumental parameters that predict the quality of consumer‐preferred attributes of the final product. This

Synergistic effects of maize defoliation and common bean relay cropping in Western Ethiopia
Abstract Background Maize defoliation is practiced to enhance crop management by improving light penetration, nutrient allocation, controlling weeds, and providing supplementary feeds for livestock. A rapid decline in soil fertility and low crop yields associated with maize‐based monocropping has prompted the recent introduction of maize common bean ...

Effects of genotype and environment on the physiochemical properties of Canadian oat varieties
Abstract BACKGROUND The relationship between oat grain composition and physical attributes as influenced by oat genotype and Canadian growing environments was investigated. Thirty Canadian oat (Avena sativa L.) genotypes, grown in three Canadian growing locations (Brandon, Manitoba; Portage la Prairie, Manitoba; and Lacombe, Alberta) over 2 consecutive

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change and population growth are major challenges for sustainable food production, particularly in regions affected by water scarcity and soil salinization. In this context, halophytes represent promising candidates as alternative and sustainable food crops for salt‐affected areas.

Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...
