Page History
The interventions of this cluster will revolve around food preservation and minimization of post harvest losses.
Food Preservation
It was noted that several Divisions, including those of Fisheries, Animal Production and Health, Plant Production and Protection, were engaged in food technology activities in their respective fields of interest. The Nutrition Division's interest was mainly, in their nutritional implications, in particular in reducing wastage of food, in preventing losses in nutritive value and in conserving or enhancing palatability.
Food processing and preparation activities cover three main fields:
(1) the preservation of foods by
(a) modern methods such as refrigeration, canning and irradiation, and
(b) traditional methods such as drying, salting, smoking and fermentation;
(2) the development of protein - rich foods;
(3) food additives.
