India's biogeochemical capacity to attain food security and remediate climate.

In order to supply wholesome food and slow down climate change, this paper covers India's agrogeological resources. The soils are the result of the weathering of rocks with ages ranging from more than a billion years to the most recent Holocene. Because they are severely deficient in vital minerals, many soils have low agricultural production. In addition to helping to fertilise soils, reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, and stop the acidification of the Indian Ocean, rock powder weathering and biochar have significant positive effects on the productivity of Indian soils. The nutrient density of food is also increased which improves health and lowers the demand for and cost of medical treatment. Remineralization may help to solve Indian soil issues including soil infertility and texture. To improve soil and plant nutrition, dusts of carbonate, basic, and ultrabasic rocks are readily available at mining sites in India combined with biochar. Adding different grain sizes to the soil helps improve the texture of the soil.Silicate and carbonate rock powders enhance soil structure by promoting the creation of soil organic matter and fostering the growth of advantageous microbial communities. These processes offer a low-cost method of remineralizing soils with important macro- and micronutrients. For each significant soil/crop/climate system, an optimised application of India's rock powder resources must be determined through a national research and development programme. India's capacity to adapt to the mounting challenges of population expansion and climate change would be significantly improved by the findings of this study programme.

Performance of Mango Trees under the Spraying of Some Biostimulants

Ensuring the sustainability of horticultural production is crucial to meeting consumer demand, and the most effective approach involves enhancing the efficient utilization of resources to support the production of wholesome foods. Plant biostimulants are substances defined by their ability, when applied to plants or the rhizosphere, to enhance root development, resulting in heightened vigor. They facilitate the more effective uptake and translocation of nutrients and water throughout the growing season. Additionally, these biostimulants contribute to improved plant health and quality by supplying essential nutrients that stimulate overall growth and metabolic processes. Therefore, this study was performed to examine the impact of some biostimulants on the possibility of improving vegetative growth, yield, fruit quality, and the leaf mineral content of mango cv. Keitt. Mango trees were sprayed with Putrescine at 25, 50, and 100 mg/L; Brassinosteroids at 0.5, 1, and 2 mg/L; and Chitosan at 500, 1000, and 1500 mg/L four times starting from mid-April, with three-week intervals during the seasons of 2021 and 2022. The results showed that the foliar application of these three biostimulants improved the growth, yield, and fruit quality of mango trees as opposed to untreated trees during two study seasons. The results also showed that the foliar application of 1500 mg/L of Chit, 2 mg/L of Brs, and 100 mg/L of Put gave the highest increments for inducing the number, length, and thickness of shoots, leaf area, and leaf chlorophyll over the other applied treatments. In addition, it also heightened the fruit set, fruit yield, and the fruit’s physical and chemical characteristics in both experimental seasons.

Advancing Insights into Probiotics during Vegetable Fermentation.

Fermented vegetables have a long history and are enjoyed worldwide for their unique flavors and health benefits. The process of fermentation improves the nutritional value, taste, and shelf life of foods. Microorganisms play a crucial role in this process through the production of metabolites. The flavors of fermented vegetables are closely related to the evaluation and succession of microbiota. Lactic acid bacteria (LABs) are typically the dominant bacteria in fermented vegetables, and they help inhibit the growth of spoilage bacteria and maintain a healthy gut microbiota in humans. However, homemade and small-scale artisanal products rely on spontaneous fermentation using bacteria naturally present on fresh vegetables or from aged brine, which may introduce external microorganisms and lead to spoilage and substandard products. Hence, understanding the role of LABs and other probiotics in maintaining the quality and safety of fermented vegetables is essential. Additionally, selecting probiotic fermentation microbiota and isolating beneficial probiotics from fermented vegetables can facilitate the use of safe and healthy starter cultures for large-scale industrial production. This review provides insights into the traditional fermentation process of making fermented vegetables, explains the mechanisms involved, and discusses the use of modern microbiome technologies to regulate fermentation microorganisms and create probiotic fermentation microbiota for the production of highly effective, wholesome, safe, and healthy fermented vegetable foods.

This article reviews the Crohn's disease exclusion diet, including its structure, mechanisms, research findings, and clinical applications.

Nutraceutical Regulations in India: A comprehensive Review

The term "Nutraceutical" was coined from "nutrition" and "pharmaceutical" in 1989, a Nutraceutical is any substance considered as a food or its part which, in addition to its normal nutritional value provides health benefits including the prevention of disease or promotion of health. Due to the adverse effects of drugs, consumers are preferring food supplements to improve health. Nutraceutical demand will grow with increasing risk of diseases is expected to boost product demand over the forecast period. High cost associated with healthcare treatments has resulted in rising consumer interest in Nutraceuticals. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has been established, which consolidates various acts and orders that were in existence to handle food related issues in various Ministries and Departments. FSSAI has been created for laying down science-based standards for articles of food and to regulate their manufacture, storage, distribution, sale and import to ensure availability of safe and wholesome food for human consumption. The regulatory framework of Nutraceuticals in India needs attention from the relevant authorities. Globally, the regulatory authorities are aware of changing needs of consumers and proactively protect consumers by amending existing laws to accommodate changes but in India old laws such as Prevention of Food adulteration Act, 1954, which regulates packaged foods, still exist for manufacturers.

A Review of the Critical Gaps in the Food Security Literature: Addressing Key Issues for Sustainable Development

This review paper covers important gaps in the knowledge base on food security, which have an impact on world development and cause an estimated 820 million people to suffer from chronic hunger and malnutrition. Food waste, climate change, socioeconomic considerations, agricultural policy, access to wholesome foods, food sovereignty, and food security are some of the major topics covered in the literature. Because of this, ensuring food security is not a straightforward issue that can be resolved by changing a single variable; rather, it necessitates the combination of numerous multidisciplinary approaches. Therefore, the goal of this study is to pinpoint the major gaps in the literature, such as a lack of attention to the perspectives of marginalized groups and a lack of investigation into the connections between food security and other global issues. The article offers suggestions for future work, including how to prioritize understudied subjects, incorporate other points of view, and enhance data collection techniques. As a result, it can be a useful starting point for linguists who want to research related topics. This study offers new researchers and practitioners a place to start to learn more about the rapidly, growing field of sustainable food security. Future research can also address these gaps and enhance food security globally for a sustainable future. This will require the participation of new scholars, policymakers, and practitioners.

A Review on Nutritional Properties and Health Benefits of Finger Millet

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana) is one of the important small millets with high nutraceutical value in the world. Most of the millet farmers attracted by Finger millet cultivation due to its wide adoptability in different soil types and climate. It also grows well in hot climates with short rainfall periods and cool climates with warm millets. A multitude of small farmers grow finger millet with limited water resources and in many countries this crop is often referred to as “poor people's crop”. The grains of finger millets are very small in size with brown, light brown and white in colours based on different cultivars. The white cultivars have been developed mainly for the baking industry, the brown and light brown types used for porridge while the brown cultivar is utilized for brewing traditional opaque beer in Southern Africa. Finger millet has the highest source of calcium and iron when compared to the other cereals. Finger millet contains high concentration of carbohydrates, dietary fibre, phytochemicals and essential amino acids; presence of essential minerals; as well as a gluten‑free status. Diet is a major focus of public health strategies aimed at maintaining optimum health throughout life, thus preventing early onset of chronic diseases as well as promoting healthier ageing. Many researchers have described that finger millet helps in natural weight loss, strengthens bone, prevents diabetes, prevents anti-ageing, maintains blood pressure levels, protects from disease, improves in hemoglobin status in children etc.,. Studies on the different properties of foods have shown that consumption of certain foods may provide greater health benefits. Finger millet is not only used for human consumption, but it is also used as feed for cattle and birds. Finger millet is used in the preparation of different foods both in natural and malted forms, like porridge, puddings, pancakes, biscuits, roti, bread, noodles, and other snacks. Besides this, it is also used as a nourishing food for infants when malted and is regarded as wholesome food for diabetic patients. Therefore, necessary need to needs to increase production and productivity through various improved technologies to meet our requirements in future and also strengthen public distribution system for achieving nutritional security.

The Impact of Ultra-Processed Foods on Diet Quality and Health Outcomes

In recent decades, there has been a notable shift in dietary patterns, with an increased consumption of ultra-processed foods. These foods, characterized by their high levels of added sugars, unhealthy fats, and chemical additives, have become a prevalent part of modern diets. However, mounting evidence suggests that the excessive intake of ultra-processed foods can have profound implications for diet quality and long-term health outcomes. Ultra-processed foods are often low in essential nutrients while being energy-dense, leading to overconsumption and imbalanced diets. The high levels of added sugars, sodium, and unhealthy fats contribute to the rising rates of obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and metabolic disorders. Studies have shown a strong association between the consumption of ultra-processed foods and an increased risk of developing chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and certain types of cancers.
 Moreover, the processing techniques used in the production of these foods can result in the loss of natural nutrients and the formation of potentially harmful substances. The reliance on refined grains, artificial additives, and preservatives in ultra-processed foods further compromises their nutritional value. These factors, combined with the addictive nature of some ultra-processed foods, make it challenging for individuals to maintain a healthy and balanced diet.
 The impact of ultra-processed foods extends beyond individual health to societal and environmental dimensions. The high demand for these products has led to unsustainable agricultural practices, increased food waste, and a strain on natural resources. Addressing the pervasive influence of ultra-processed foods requires a multifaceted approach that includes public awareness campaigns, improved food labeling, and policies aimed at promoting the availability and affordability of healthier options.
 As the consumption of ultra-processed foods continues to rise, it is imperative to recognize the detrimental impact they have on diet quality and long-term health outcomes. Efforts should focus on promoting whole, minimally processed foods and educating individuals about the importance of a nutrient-rich diet. By addressing the root causes of excessive ultra-processed food consumption, we can empower individuals to make informed dietary choices, improve diet quality, and mitigate the burden of chronic diseases. Additionally, policy interventions that support sustainable and healthier food systems are crucial in creating environments that promote the availability and accessibility of wholesome food choices.

Legal Framework for Implementation of Trans-fat Regulations in India

Background: The widespread consumption of trans-fats across the world represents a worrying scenario, as it is directly responsible for coronary heart disease and related mortality. Recognizing its dangers, the WHO has set an agenda to eliminate trans-fats by 2023. In India, the Food Safety And Standards Authority ensures safe and wholesome food consumption. In light of the WHO’s standards for the elimination of trans-fats, the FSSAI recently notified limits of trans-fatty acids to not more than 3% in all fats and oils by January 2021 and 2% by January 2022, as well as a limitation on all food products in which edible oils and fats are ingredients to not contain trans-fatty acids of more than 2% mass of total oils/fats in the product by January 2022. Objective: Given the need to eliminate the consumption of trans-fats, it is necessary to assess the implementation of trans-fat regulations in India in order to determine the current status of enforcement and suggest measures for improvement. Methods: Empirical research was conducted through a questionnaire to analyze India’s current status and difficulties in enforcing trans-fat regulations. Results: Although all states have included compliance of trans-fat regulation in the agenda of the State Surveillance Plan but are facing some implementation challenges such as lack of lab infrastructure, lack of trained manpower, unsupportive FBOs, insufficient budget, lack of testing kits, and excluding proprietary food from compliance with trans-fat regulations. Further, all states have felt the need to develop a guideline/manual to facilitate enforcement of the trans-fat regulations. In light of this, the article has critically analyzed the Legal framework for implementing Trans-fat Regulations in India to identify specific implementation challenges due to scattered regulations and recommend suggestive measures for developing the guidelines/manual to facilitate effective implementation of the said regulation.

Ayurveda Treatment Protocol in the Management of Relapse of Palmo-Plantar Pustulosis (PPP) - A Case Report

Background: Palmo-Plantar Pustulosis (PPP) is one of the debilitative skin disorders having a prevalence of 0.050 to 0.12 % worldwide, which is hallmarked by sharply demarcated erythematous pustular lesions over the body. Modern treatment provides certain moisturizers, topical steroids, light therapy, and systemic therapies in the long run, but recurrent crops of pustular lesions are the main problem. Here a case of PPP treated with Ayurvedic protocol is discussed. A 65-year old female patient complained of blackish-red pustular desquamative lesions over the upper and lower limb associated with occasional oozing after itching with extreme hardness and rough texture over the affected area for three years. The ailment was diagnosed as kitibha (a type of psoriasis), and the treatment was organized accordingly. The patient received continuous virechana (purgative therapy) for three months at a rate of six days per month, followed by pathya (wholesome food), topical application, and internal medications. Auspitz signs and PASI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) assessment, along with symptomatic improvement in signs and symptoms, were used to quantify the outcome of the disease. After receiving the initial bowel cleansing medications such as Patolakaturohinyadi Kashaya, Saribadyasava, and Manibhadragula, the patient claimed complete recovery from the acute phase. The second phase was followed by continuous virechana (purgation therapy) for three months at a rate of six days per month, which showed no signs of relapse for three consecutive months in the affected areas. Even though PPP is incredibly challenging to treat, shodhana (purificatory therapy) for six consecutive months can potentially prevent relapse. This opens up the future scope for structured clinical trials in the treatment of disease.

Development and Organoleptic Evaluation of Iron Rich Pancake Premix Using Spirulina and Super Flours

Since ancient times, poor nutrition has been the primary culprit of iron deficiency, especially in the school going adolescent girls. There may be a number of factors that contribute to this. The production of affordable, wholesome, and practical foods is a challenge for the food industry. Spirulina platensis, a microscopic and filamentous cyanobacterium is a blue-green algae that is considered to be one of the ancient life forms on Earth. To increase the nutritive value and to provide other vital nutrients, best wholesome cereals must be chosen over or in combination with refined flour. Here, quinoas, soy flour and amaranth come in the picture. The preparation of pancake premix and the final product was done in the department of food and nutrition, school of home sciences , BBAU Lucknow in the duration of nine months from September 2023 to May 2023. The assessment was successful and yielded genuine beneficial outcomes. The spirulina pan cakes excel in terms of flavour, aroma, and mouth feel. The panellists found the pancake's green tint to be somewhat objectionable.

Agronomic Analysis and Nutrient Application Guidance Using Machine Learning

The Indian economy has always been based primarily on agriculture. The industry has met the entire nation’s food consumption needs while ranking among the top exporters of agricultural products worldwide. Although this industry has faced its fair share of difficulties lately, few of them are as pressing as they were before Covid-19’s limits on local and international travel. Agriculture and farming enterprises have an opportunity to expand as more people become aware of the value of wholesome food and the reasons why terms like “organic” actually matter. Online marketing is a simple way to improve sales, brand awareness, and market share in the farming and agricultural sectors. One of the most significant factors that makes websites useful is that unlike in the past, this growth is enabling business owners and farmers to specify how they must operate. But because of the shortage of labour caused by the reverse labour migration, which hindered harvesting, farmers need a strategy to boost production. Farmers must grow the appropriate crops and apply the appropriate fertilisers in order to maintain a constant output. Many farmers plant crops that are inappropriate for a particular piece of land because they are unaware of this, wasting a tonne of time and resources. Farmers can therefore use web tools to help them find the best crop to cultivate on their land in order to overcome this dilemma.

FOOD INSECURITY IN POST COVID-19: THE ROLES OF HOME ECONOMICS

This research investigated the influence of food insecurity in the post-corona virus era, and the perceivedissues that came with it. The Government of Nigeria decided to impose and implement limited mobility orlockdown due to the unexpected coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic outbreak and its infectious transmissionrate. The government's order for a lockdown had a severe influence on people's lifestyles and welfare,particularly with relation to food security and the contribution of home economics activities to appropriatedietary needs. The study was guided by two research questions and one hypothesis. Through the use ofstraightforward random sample methods, a total of 162 respondents were included in the study. This wasdone to check for the prevalence of depression symptoms related to insufficient feeding that happened duringthe lockdown and movement restrictions. This brought about shortage of food, lack or unavailability andinsufficient food production and its impact on Post-Covid -19 homes and families. The study's findingsinclude an increase in consumers' need for food, a shortage in food supply that results in insufficient feedingin homes, and a rise in food shortage levels in various families in the post-Covid -19 period. It was observedthat the pandemic had impact on food security in the form of food chain disruption, unequal food conditions,and uneven food distribution. The effective adoption of more comprehensive and focused social protectionprograms was advised in order to increase everyone's access to wholesome foods, even in times of need ordisaster. Governmental bodies should also make sure that the food system is effective and that, in terms ofsustainable food security, national legislation should be duty bound to recognize and incorporatesindividuals' rights.

DNA-Based Platform for Halal Authentication and Combat Food Threat

The molecular recognition of a particular DNA target is essential not only for the development of new drugs, forensic research, and medical diagnostics but also for Halal authentication. Halal food products are those that are prepared in accordance with Islamic Shariah law while also being hygienic. Food safety plays an essential role in determining Halal foods, such as wholesome (safety, cleanliness, nutrition, and quality) food, in addition to the required Syariah regulation of halal food for Muslims. Thus, food authentication is an increasing concern and an integral part of ensuring quality foods that comply with religious faith. Furthermore, "zoonotic threats" such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (bovine species) and H5N1 virus (avian species) have tremendously intensified the need for foods to secure human health. Muslim or non-Muslim consumers will benefit from purchasing Halal foods when their rights are protected by preventing fraudulent admixing and microbial threats. Depending upon the way the sequence in the genome varies, DNA-based biomarkers can recognize the distinction between different types of animal or microbial species. The detection of a particular DNA target has led to the development of a variety of different platforms such as polymerase chain reaction molecular fluorophores-based and nanoparticle-based assay. Therefore, this paper is aimed at describing the DNA-based platform to protect the consumer's right to prevent food fraud and ensure safe Halal food.
 

A Blockchain-Driven Food Supply Chain Management Using QR Code and XAI-Faster RCNN Architecture

The availability of food in a country and the capacity of its citizens to access, acquire, and receive enough food are both referred to as having food security. A crucial component of food security is ensuring and maintaining safe and high-quality goods, which the supply chain process should take into due deliberation. To enhance the food supply chain, organic and wholesome food items should be encouraged. Although packaged goods are evaluated and approved by legal authorities, there is no mechanism in place for testing and assessing the market’s available supply on a regular basis. As a result, food manufacturers are compelled to provide nutritious and healthy products. In this research, we propose an explainable artificial intelligence-based faster regions with convolutional neural networks (XAI-based Faster RCNN) model to evaluate the contents of the food items through user-friendly web-based front-end design and QR code. To validate each communication token in the network, an elliptic curve integrated encrypted scheme (ECIES) based on blockchain technology is utilized. Additionally, artificial rabbit optimization (ARO) is used to register each user and assign him a key. The user will gain a deeper understanding of machine learning (ML) and AI applications using the XAI technique. An EAI-based Faster RCNN model is proposed to help digitize information about food products, rapidly retrieve the information, and discover any hidden information in the quick response (QR) code that could have impacted the safety and quality of the food. The results of the experiments indicated that the proposed method requires less response time than other existing methods with the increase of payload and users. The Shapley additive explanation is used to obtain a legal plea for the laboratory test based on the nutritional information present in the QR code. The benefits provided by ECIES-based blockchain technology assist policymakers, manufacturers, and merchants in efficient decision-making, minimizing public health hazards, and improving welfare. This paper also shows that the accuracy achieved by the proposed method reached 99.53%, with the lowest processing time.

Design and Fabrication of Solar and Wind Pesticide Sprinkling Machine

Agriculture is a global industry and is referred to as the "BACK BONE OF INDIA." We may live a healthy life thanks to agriculture and plant production, which provides us with wholesome foods and vegetables. In comparison to the agricultural product, machinery also contributes significantly. To chop cultivated plants, etc., machines are used to spray insecticides. Spraying pesticides is essential to maintaining the health of crops, plants, and vegetable plants. Moreover, illnesses are used to protect crops from pests. In agriculture, machine-applied pesticides like drones, backpacks, and manually sprayed types are more common. Automatic and semi-automatic machinery may result in good cost efficiency in this equipment. This will have an impact on the farmer's cost-effectiveness. We are manually typing.
