As it produces reasonable yields even under conditions of drought and low soil fertility, it is also a climate-smart crop. Previously underutilized, BGN is the subject of growing interest among researchers and consumers for its balanced nutritional profile. Indigenous consumers of BGN report medicinal benefits from the plant; however, such knowledge is at risk of being lost with the urbanization and changing lifestyles of younger generations. To date, there is no comprehensive resource on the Bambara groundnut, despite market demand for plant proteins around the globe. Authored by scientists who have researched and developed patents using BGN, Bambara Groundnut: Utilization and Future Prospects aims to fill this gap. The text provides in-depth coverage on breeding, food and feed utilization, medicinal benefits and future research prospects. Drawing on both indigenous knowledge and cutting-edge research, Bambara Groundnut is the first book to fully explore the potential of this remarkable crop. 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aFood science 606 $aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects 606 $aBotany 606 $aNutrition 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aFood Science 606 $aEnvironmental Social Sciences 606 $aPlant Science 606 $aNutrition 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aFood science. 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aNutrition. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aEnvironmental Social Sciences. 615 24$aPlant Science. 615 24$aNutrition. 676 $a664 700 $aJideani$b Victoria$01886205 702 $aJideani$b Afam I.
