Processing of Sweet Corn
نویسنده
چکیده
Sweet corn cobs constituting raw material for processing must be characterized by the highest quality of kernels. Kernel quality is defined not just by the chemical and sensory properties, but also by the mechanical parameters of kernels. This appears to fully justify joint consideration of all those properties. Sweet corn is probably a mutant of fodder corn (Orłowski, 2000). Significant differences between the two are related more to the genetics than to the structure of the kernels. As emphasized by Salunkhe and Kadam (1998), the structure of the kernels is strongly related to thegenetic modification and to ripeness.

متن کاملRisk and the Value of Additional Insecticide Applications for European Corn Borer Control in Processing Sweet Corn
This analysis uses data from field evaluations of pyrethroid insecticides to estimate the uncertainty (risk) and expected value of additional insecticide applications and IPM to control European corn borer larvae in processing sweet corn. Preliminary empirical results indicate that IPM can increase expected returns around $5-$9/ac and reduce the risk (variability) of net returns.

Abstract Seasonal drought is the most important factor to limit the production of maize in the world. Using a split plot design, a two year field experiment was conducted to determine the effect of limited irrigation regime on yield, yield components and water use efficiency of sweet corn (Zea mays var. saccharata). Responses of three sweet corn varieties KSC403, Merit and Obsession to three di...
متن کاملInvestigating the Changes in β-Carotene concentrations of Carrot and Sweet Corn Using Different Methods of Heat Treatments
Carotenoids are red, orange and yellow pigments, which are widely distributed in fruit and vegetables. The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of conventional, high pressure and microwave cooking on the concentrations of β-carotene in carrot and sweet corn. Raw carrots were washed, peeled and diced to a uniform size and then frozen at -70°C. Sweet corn was also provided in a simil...
