Production of Shelf-Stable Fermented Maize Starch Flour for Akpan: Effects of Fermentation and Drying Conditions on Flour Characteristics and Final Product Quality. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr
Optimization of fermented maize starch production through controlled fermentation and drying (60–72 h fermentation; ~55°C drying) yields a stable flour capable of producing akpan with quality attributes comparable to commercial products. ABSTRACT Akpan is a Beninese yogurt‐like product whose quality and usability depend on fermented maize starch (FMS),

Global determinants of home range sizes in felids: Evidence of human disturbance impact. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
This study is the first to demonstrate the influence of anthropogenic factors and species richness in felids on home range size across the entire felid taxon. Felids are a taxon of major interest in conservation biology, and gaining a comprehensive view of their spatial ecology will help derive global conservation recommendations.

A Holistic Assessment of Water Footprint and Irrigation Performance Indicators With Respect to Agricultural Water Productivity

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified prolonged droughts in many regions, including Türkiye, resulting in growing pressure on already limited water resources. Agriculture, as the largest water‐consuming sector, faces critical challenges in sustaining productivity under increasing water scarcity. In this context, assessing water use efficiency through

Transforming Agricultural Water Management for Healthy People and Planet: Thinking Beyond Water

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops the concept of Thinking Beyond Water, a transdisciplinary paradigm that reframes agricultural water management (AWM) as a systems catalyst for planetary health, equity, justice and resilience. Moving beyond conventional irrigation‐centric models, we reimagine AWM through integrative frameworks such as the planetary ...
