Challenges and Prospects for Processing and Utilization of Tradtional Grains in Uganda
نویسنده
چکیده
INTRODUCTION Traditional grains such as sorghum, finger millet, and cowpeas are some of the major grain foods grown and consumed in Uganda. The respective output/input ratios of sorghum, finger millet and cowpeas are higher than those of maize and beans that are produced in higher quantities (Table 1), which makes the production of traditional grains more profitable. The high profitability can be partly attributed to grains’ low production inputs and their ability to withstand semi-arid conditions.
