An assessment of post-harvest rice operations was conducted in 26 villages in Niono, Sikasso, and Mopti, Mali. An assessment of consumer preference criteria was conducted in Bamako, Dakar, Cotonou, and Accra. The questions focused on quality assessment, the use of processing equipment, the forms and locations of rice consumption, and the importance of rice in the diet. Preferences for rice types vary from one city to another. Broken grains are more popular in Dakar, while in Bamako, long-grain rice was preferred. In Cotonou, rice is considered equally important as other crops (corn, cassava). Consumers highly appreciated rice that absorbs a lot of water during cooking and has a short cooking time. The protein contents of Jiguifa (11.57%), Wassa (9.64%), and Kogoni 91-1C were the highest. Djouka and couscous made with spinach and amaranth leaves, stored for 12 months, showed no signs of rancidity. Rice parboilers received training on improved rice parboiling processes.

Breeding Oilseed Crops for Sustainable Production: Opportunities and Constraints
<i> <p>Breeding Oilseed Crops for Sustainable Production: Opportunities and Constraints</i> presents key insights into accelerating the breeding of sustainable and superior varieties. </p> <p>The book explores the genetic engineering/biotechnology that has played a vital role in transforming economically important traits from distant/wild species to cultivated varieties, enhancing the quality and quantity of oil and seed yield production. Integrated nutrient management, efficient water management, and forecasting models for pests diseases outbreaks and integrated pest and pest management have also added new dimensions in breeding for sustainable production. With the rise in demand, the scientific community has responded positively by directing a greater amount of research towards sustainable production both for edible and industrial uses. </p> <p>Covering the latest information on various major world oil crops including rapeseed mustard, sunflower, groundnut, sesame, oilpalm, cotton, linseed/flax, castor and olive, this book brings the latest advances together in a single volume for researchers and advanced level students. </p>
