Microbial production of antimicrobials as biopreservatives is the major area of focus nowadays due to increased interest of consumers towards natural and safe preservation of ready to eat food products. The agro-industrial byproduct based medium and optimized process conditions can contribute in economical production of bacteriocins. Keeping this in view, the present investigation was carried o...

In the present study, a variety of agro-industrial wastes have been utilized for meaningful purpose to produce valuable biocatalyst. All wastes used were low cost and easily accessible while, some available throughout the year. A number of bacterial strains isolated from rotten fruits and vegetables were screened for the production of industrially important polygalacturonase (PGase) using pecti...

In the economy of Russian regions, situation has developed in such a way that their development requires new approaches and technologies for managing pro- cesses based on knowledge, latest achievements world experience. The indi- cated trend implies need to develop justify competitive strate- gies advantages available each region, reflecting spe- cifics potential. Innovation clusters play speci...

The article discusses the aspects of establishment of food sovereignty from the regional point of view. Herewith, it is mentioned that the established food sovereignty of a state should be based on food sovereignty of regions as separate administrative and territorial units. The most prioritized field of development of agro-industrial complex is rational distribution and efficient specializatio...

In this paper we address the question of farm-nonfarm linkages at the household level for a case-study in Senegal. We examine whether increasing off-farm employment opportunities for rural households – resulting from increased horticulture exports and associated agro-industrialization – has benefitted the smallholder farm sector through investment linkages. We use data from a household survey i...

according to the importance of careful review of crude oil market fluctuations on the iranian economy, in this paper a multivariate model of markov switching vector error correction model (have been used). variables such as real gross domestic product in industrial sector, real effective exchange rate, real governmental expenditure, real import, inflation rate and real crude oil price is used t...

agribusinesses, especially agricultural industries play important role as driving force for agricultural growth. however, these industries have not experienced appropriate growth and have not derived agricultural development, particularly through providing more remunerative markets for small farmers. the main purpose of this qualitative study was to achieve a deep understanding about obstacles ...

background and objective: in the present study, bacillus polymyxa ncim no. 2539 was selected to utilize agro-industrial byproduct (orange peel) for amylase production under submerged fermentation conditions. material and methods: different agro-industrial byproducts like cane molasses, wheat bran, rice bran and orange peel were screened for maximum amylase production. amylase activitiy of bacil...

This work investigated the production of the fungi Isaria fumosorosea and Isaria farinosa in biphasic fermentation using agro-industrial products and residues. Combinations of natural liquid substrates, alternative to the complete medium and potato dextrose medium, were evaluated. The best liquid media were sugarcane molasses + rice broth, rice broth + yeast and sugarcane molasses + yeast + ric...
