Methods: Day old turkey poults (n= 96) were distributed into four dietary treatment groups:T1-basal diet, T2-T1+0.04% L-val, T3- T1+0.08% L-val , T4- T1+0.12% L-val, having three replicates of 8 birds each. Result: No significance difference observed in average weekly body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of birds throughout experimental period except at 7th week where T2 and T3 poults had a significantly higher (P less than 0.05) BW, BWG and significantly better (P less than 0.05) FCR.

Cheese has been a part of well balanced diet all over the world. Quarg is milky white in colour, may be even faintly yellowish, body and texture are homogeneously soft, smooth, good spreadable and it is essentially milk protein paste. Quarg cheese appeals to palate of Indian people who don’t like the typical sharp flavour of other varieties of cheeses. Method: Ashwagandha, Turmeric, Betel vine and Tulsi are most common herbs traditionally used in Indian culinary dishes particularly spread. They also have both antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Keeping this fact in view attempts would have been made to explore the flavour and antimicrobial effect of herbs in quarg type cheese. Initially, work was carried out to select the levels of four herbs (Ashwagandha, Turmeric, Betel vine and Tulsi) for the preparation of quarg type cheese and tried in preliminary study. On the basis of sensory evaluation best treatment of each herbs selected for further experiment. The experiments were laid out in completely randomized design for selecting level of addition of herbal in quarg type cheese.

At the same time, India has large share of small ruminants (sheep and goats) in her stockpile of livestock. This paper is an effort towards finding out the mutual compatibility between the two. Methods: The study was conducted during 2020-21 in the rainfed areas of Jammu region, in three main districts i.e., Kathua, Udhampur and Rajouri, respectively. The technique of production function was applied to ascertain the resource use efficiency so as to find out the inputs that yielded maximum returns to the farmers. In addition, linear programming was applied so as to find out the optimisation of returns, respectively. Result: Profitability was found to be higher for Rajouri district (Rs. 12.79 per ruminant per day). ‘Selling of mutton’ formed the major component of gross returns in Kathua and Udhampur district, respectively. Production function analysis revealed ‘concentrates’ (0.219) in Kathua district and ‘labour’ (3.559) in Udhampur district as the important inputs in the small ruminant’s enterprise. The labour was found in large numbers there, but there is paucity of training of labour. In this regard, the paper recommends the proper training measures for the labour engaged in this enterprise. Moreover, there is large variations (as depicted by linear programming) in the optimisation of the inputs (cash outlay and labour requirements) within the districts and this needs to be adjusted appropriately. These adjustments need to be made so that small ruminant’s enterprise can act as the bulwark against the looming threat of climate variations.\u0000","PeriodicalId":89171,"journal":{"name":"Journal of dairying, foods & home sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48429886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: The developed value added giblet pickle was standardised with 15% rosella. The comparison was made among the samples incorporated in paste, oven dried powdered and 4% acetic acid. Result: The addition of 15% roselle in paste form increased the overall acceptability as well as the product yield. The protein content of both the treatments was found to be higher compared to the control. The pH of control (3.06±0.04) ranged to 4.25±.07 in treatment.

However, the increase in TBARS, tyrosine values and microbial load were within the recommended limits as per FSSAI for pickled meat products.

The extracts were obtained by maceration with acetone, ethanol and methanol at 70% (v/v). Result: The greatest content of polyphenols, flavonoids and tannins, was obtained with acetone (42±3.46 mg GAE/g DW), (24.49±1.24 mg EQ/g DW) and (34.95±8.71 mg EC/g DW) respectively. HPLC analysis performed to determine acetonic extract components revealed the presence of p-coumaric acid, diosmin as the most abundant compounds and several apigenins. Antioxidant activity of cumin extracts showed the greatest activity with the acetonic extract (940±42 µg/mL) followed very closely by the ethanolic extract (960±50 µg/mL). The agar well diffusion method has shown that all the extracts have an antimicrobial power against all the Gram+strains.

Considering this, it is crucial to understand future production to enhance and sustain the sector’s growth and development. Methods: The present investigation attempts to predict and forecast milk production in Tamil Nadu using time series models. Yearly milk data from 1976 to 2020 was taken. The study considered Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to select the appropriate stochastic model for forecasting milk production in Tamil Nadu. Further statistical modeling procedures employed for milk production reveal that the selection of a suitable time series model will always depend on the nature of the data. Result: Results revealed that the ARIMA model is selected as the best model despite ANN, even if it is considered the most powerful model. The CAGR for forecasted milk production from 2020-2025 was 0.02%. Model adequacy criteria like RMSE, MAPE and MAE are used.

Taking this into consideration an attempt was made to utilize these ingredients to develop a low-cost cupcake (Almocake) with high calcium and magnesium content for people suffering from micronutrient deficiency. The current rate of cupcakes per kg is approximately 700 rs/kg but the “Almocake” is 495 rs per kg, which is much lesser than the commercially available one.
