Role of Millets for Food Security Under Climate Change. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The accelerating impacts of climate change pose significant threats to global food security, highlighting critical vulnerabilities within the agricultural system. As greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, global temperatures have increased by 0.6°C over the 20th century, with projections indicating further increases of 0.1°C–2°C per decade.

Comparative Studies of the Nutritional Value of Digitaria Iburua and Digitaria Exilis Seed Oils
The oil content of brown and white acha seeds was extracted and characterized using the AOAC procedure. Consumption of these grains by people with health-related diseases necessitated this study to authenticate its nutritional values. The physicochemical characterization revealed the two oils to have low oil yields of high quality.

Use of Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum L.) Starch in Gluten-Free Cakes: Physicochemical, Nutritional, Textural Properties, and Determination of Pore Structure Using Conventional Thresholding Algorithms. [PDF]
Abstract Research into alternative starch sources for the production of gluten‐free products continues. In this study, starch production from horse chestnut seeds was carried out using alkali and ultrasound‐assisted methods, and the starches produced were used in the production of gluten‐free cakes. The obtained horse chestnut starches were used in the
