DISRUPTIVE INNOVATIONS.
The Production and Processing conditions are changing fast opening up competitive environment which could render the traditional approaches irrelevant.
Disruption resulting in progressive changes across the globe is charging the TECHIES to constantly aquire newer knowledge keeping abreast of the latest innovative development and trends to expand bioengineering for the promotion of mankind sustainability.

NATURAL MILK.
Milk is defined as the normal secretion of the female mammary glands of all mammals, this natural secretion is for the nourishment of the young of that species of the animals. While man has kept her own secretion for the exclusive preserve of her young ones he has tended to harness the milk of other animals eg Goats, Sheep, Buffalo, Cows etc for his own benefit.
In typical dairy countries of Europe , Asia and America various milk products are made directly from milk harvested from mammals as mentioned above.
In Nigeria, where dairy farming is at infancy or non existence imported raw dairy materials are used.
MILK VALUE CHAIN
— Powder milk
• Skim powder milk — This is defatted milk meaning the milk fat has been removed. .could be used as dietethics .
• Instant Wholemilk powder — The milk components are intact.
— The Liquid whole milk – As in the evaporated canned milk.
— Ice cream .
Others includes
•Acidophilus milk, Butter milk, kefir and koumiss
• Semi solid products which includes culture cream and Yoghurt.
• The unripened soft cheese which includes bakers cheese, cottage cheese, cream cheese action during fermentation by Yoghurt culture .

ENGINEERED BIOSYNTHESIS OF MILK
However , on the contrary to natural milk , Disruptive Technological innovation known as “Healthy Milk” from the laboratories petri dishes culture is emerging based on MICROBIAL FERMENTATION. In this , Dairy milk was reengineered to biosynthesize the protein gene molecule by adding recombined DNA derived from cow milk to produce a microbial fermentation of milk using water as medium the milk so produced lack lactose, saturated fats and cholesterol.
The process copy gene from cow transform it into single cell microbe. This concept is now known as HEALTHIER MILK .
Good for people who are allergic to natural milk consumption.

LABORATORY BIOSYNTHESIS OF COFFEE.
Like most food products,
the cost of coffee beans is surgingup nearly 45% in ’22 alone. This was further compounded by extreme weather conditions damaging coffee crops in Brazil and other anti marketing conditions in other places. The conventional coffee production is notoriously associated with several issues such as unsustainable farming methods, exploitation and land rights.
Sequel to these nagging scenarios, a team of scientists of VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland led by Heiko Rischer blaze the trial using CELLULAR agriculture as an alternative to convectional farming based on biotechnology , while his team are still in the process of examing the coffee biomass in detail, however, at this point it is known that CAFFEINE is produced by culture and that the Aroma / flavour profile of the roasted material and brew is similar to conventional ground coffee. The process isn’t unconnected with recombination of the DNA of coffee cell in the laboratory conditions transferring them to bioreactor filled with nutrients medium in petri dishes to produce the biomass. The biomass is then roasted brewed before it finally undergo analytical and sensory testing in terms of smell and taste. Trained sensory panel and analytical examination found the profile of the brew similar to ordinary coffee.
Rischer explained that almost all the nutritional parameters were better in the biomass produced from the plant cell culture than those in the corresponding natural fruits.

ENGINEERED BIOSYNTHESIS OF HOPS CELL.
Hops is a Beer brewing ingredient responsible for impacting the desired aroma and bitter taste (alpha Acid Content) in Beer drinks.
The value of hops for preservation of beverages and flavourings appears to have been recognised in the 12th century. To select a variety, it is important to know which factors influence the choice of different varieties from the Brewer’s and Grower’s point of view.
The brewer’ s view can be identified as Aroma , Alpha acid content, Origin , Quality and Price.
While from Grower’s view the variety to cultivate are Diseases, Ripening date, Saleability , Machine Picking Quality , Yield per Hectare , Price / Profit and The Alpha Acid content.
However, in the wort copper, the carbonyl state of Terpene is lost to boiling resulting in obnoxious off gas.
Another way in the abatement of the obnoxious off gas of Terpene origin in the brew house is the elimination of Hops in the brewery. In a Research project carried out by a Research team of the University of Califonia in 2017 with the aim that BREWER’S yeast can be reengineered to biosynthesize aromatic mono – terpene molecules (the carbonly compound of the lower alky group ) that can impact HOPPY flavor to beer by adding recombined DNA derived from yeast mint and basil which produces LINALOOL and GENENIOL to brewers yeast. The research if successful will bring about the innovation that will completely eliminate the use of Hops in breweries, the repercussions of which might be a major commercial issues to Hops farmers.

■— Research has successfully shown that cellular agriculture can be used for more than supplements and ingredients.
■ Very soon Meat , fish etc will be grown from the laboratory petri dishes Culture.

DETERGENTS used for washing in industries should have the following characteristics.

-Ability to loosen organic matters eg. Soil etc. (organic dissolving power)

-Good rinsing power.
-Adequate wetting power to allow detergent to penetrate the deposit acting quickly and efficiently.
-Good sequestering power – removal of mineral deposits eg. Calcium, magnesium.
-Emulsifying power – fragmenting oil into tiny particles.
-Adequate germicidal power to sterilized dirty detergent solutions.
-Ability to dissolve alkali solutions precipitate of calcium and magnesium salt.
-It should not be corrosive.
-It should posses good buffering and saponifying powers.

The above characters may not be contained in a single detergent but if blended with others rich in some of the characters, a good result may be achieved.

MAJOR SOURCES OF DETERGENTS.
{Alkalis} – Caustic soda is the basic ingredient of detergent however,
there could be addition of other additives to give a property to the detergent. Other basic ingredients are Soda ash, Sodium silicate and others as seen above.

SEQUESTERING AGENT.
This is the action of polyphosphate in precipitation of calcium and magnesium salts in water creating additional wetting agent and polyphosphate to assist sequestration this would constitute most effective and economical clean-in-place detergent for brewing cleanings.

WETTING AGENT.
Known generally as synthetic detergent, Wetting agents are classified into 3 major types :An-ionic and Cat-ionic wetting agents.
The An-ionc type is commonly used for detergent formulation eg. Sulphated alcohols alkyl or aryl sulphonates. Non-ionic are mostly the polyethylonic oxide. On blending of both an ionic and catonic the result may be excessive foaming. It also processes good wetting, dispersing and rinsing power.

STERILISING AGENT.
Alkalis porcess sterilizing power, which increases with pH and temperature.

SECURITY PATHWAYS IN RELATION TO SUSTAINABLE FOOD SECURITY OF A NATION.

Published

on

Good governance is predicated on ensuring the actualisation of the various security architecture of a Nation. The political barometer is also monitored through the efficiency of the security pathways which are :
INTERNAL SECURITY, INFORMATION/COMMUNICATION. , FOOD SECURITY, HEALTH ,EDUCATION, ELECTRICITY, TRANSPORTATION AND INDUSTRIAL GROWTH.
.
All the above are the essential security systems that can produce and provide QUALITY POPULATION through good and quality SUPERVISION

✅NATIONAL Security of life and properties is the (numero uno) number one responsibility of the Head of government be it President, Head of state and others. The mandate to secure life and property is paramount , they control and command the apparatus of security such as adequate Policing, effective Armed forces- Army for protection against external or internal aggression. Customs / Immigration for vigilant boarders patrol to prevent smuggling and immigration control amongst many others . Equipping them with weapons, Aircrafts, Vehicles, Boats etc.
For effective surveillance. In tackling the menace of bandits and kidnappers who have taken over the forest prohibiting farming activities . Armed Forest Guards / Rangers should be introduced.

INFORMATION/COMMUNICATION.
The entire world is in information age.
The constitution clearly stipulate that every person shall be entitled to freedom of expression, freedom to hold opinions and to receive as well as to impact ideas and information.
However, it is the opinion of this writer that freedom be guided with secured intent to prevent abuse that may result in conflicts and war through hateful and unguided utterances.
The most acceptable form of communication is such that promote humane, responsible and patriotic reportage upholding the concept of discipline and promoting values nationally and internationally.
A lot of opportunity mostly untapped abound for investment in Information and communication like Print, Electronic and ICT media.
For industrial growth, information through advertisement, publication and social media is vital for public awareness.

FOOD SECURITY
Whether one eat to live or live to eat is a matter of semantics the bottom – line is Food is the main sustainace of bodies and souls. The importance of food cannot be over emphasised . knowing this fact of life has made the developed world to appropriately plan for provision of quality food for their citizens. Provision of food is prioritize in their national agenda. It is on this note that the United Nation’s clarion call to others in the world to emulate the culture of Sustainable Food Security ensuring the Tripple A(s). of AVAILABILITY, ACCEPTABLITY and AFFORDABILITY. ( UN 2030 food security agenda) of good quality food for the underdeveloped countries who are import dependent on basic food items such as Rice, Sugar, Dairy , Beverages etc .
Presently, Nigeria is revolutionising agrioprenuerial activities, it’s hoped that the present policies on agriculture will not be Summersaulted. The Maputo declaration on allocation of minimum 10% of the country’s annual budget must go to agriculture. Food must be made a constitutional right for all. The authority must take time to support Micro and Small scale Agroprenuerails activities to adapt to climate change. Agroprenuerail activities is the surest way to lift hundreds of millions out of hunger, poverty, conflict and deaspiration.

HEALTH CARE
Health is wealth – Primary Health care delivery must be taken to the grassroot levels, while Rural Health care moblisation be made available and effective all must be well equipped with vaccines, drugs, consumables and other biologicals.
— Ensure maintenance of standard by private sector through effective monitoring.
— Tapping into Herbs Processing , local medical herbs be Researched into by National Institute of Pharmaceutical RnD. In Collaboration with Fed Mins. of Science and Technology.
— Integration of alternative medicine into health care.
— Health insurance scheme must be intensified on .
— Stemming of illegal importation of smuggled fake drugs and illegal drug manufacturing in the country.

EDUCATION
A Society, Community and Nation is as good as the percentage of her literary population. The various levels of education are Primary , Secondary and teriary education 6-3-3-4 .Education must attract appropriate budget at all time. Education is being administered by Public and Private participation at all levels. The special education must receive attention by provision of special equipment such as braille machine, audiometer etc.

ELECTRICITY
To the chagrin of the unsuspecting consumers and Contrary to claim of the generation companies that generation capacity has improved to 7000 MW , the actual has been fluctuating between 2500 -3500 MW.(April 2019)
The idea of mono grid must be jettison while the legislation be relaxed to accommodate Private participations in generation. While effort must be intensified on the Green Bond of #10.97bn raise in December 2018. for financing of SOLAR energy.
Industrial development is unachievable without steady supply of electricity. A green belt of
Industrial Parks on Green energy is recommended in all the States of federation.this will sustain industrial activities that will promote growth.

TRANSPORTATION
This sector is an indispensable catalyst for stimulating economic, social, political and strategic/defence development of a Nation. All the National Development plans must accord the transport sector very high priority. In the formulation of National Transport policy, there must be defined objectives such as economic efficiency and coordinated development plan.
All forms of transportation system are embraced in Nigeria. Motor ,Railway transportation, inland waterways, aviation terminal and handling facilities seaports, airports and riverports including other ancillary facilities.
The administration of Transportation is vested in both Fed. Ministry of Works and Housing (Fed. Highways – Interstate roads Construction and maintenance) and State Ministry of Works/Transport (interstate roads while LG is responsible for Urban and Rural roads Construction and maintenance.
Aviation Ministry for Civil Aviation, Airports Development Management and Metrological services.
Internationally, the railway system is more affordable and relatively saver the frequency in Nigeria must be upgraded not scanty show up as is now the case.

INDUSTRIAL GROWTH
The economic growth rate ( 2019) is 2.1% ,this development is not unconnected with the dismal performances of the various indices above. eg the manufacturing growth rate is presently less than 7% although the Fedreral government set a 10.6% goal in 2017.which was to be driven by SME. Productivity is the only stimulant for Industrial growth. Farming output is barely about 22% mostly subsistence. .about 55% of work force is absorbed by agriculture. The major farming communities in North East, Middle belt downwards to the southern section are being sacked either Boko Haram terrorist or Pasteuralist /Farmers conflicts and banditry.
The various activities as enumerated in this writeup are all depended on Food security system. FOOD SECURITY MUST BE IN THE FRONT BURNER TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS. IN OTHER SEGMENTS.

CONCLUSION
— FOOD Security issues must be in the front burner of government’s agenda. Since it encompasses all other activities.
— The effectiveness of other parasatal must be ensured through adequate supervision.
— TO PREVENT IMMINENT DANGER OF FAMINE. Forest Guards (armed) must be appropriately deployed to secure the large expanse of the forest for Farming activities.
— Indigenous Reserch and Development on local Technology be improved on.
— Electricity generation from Green Energy source should be encouraged in the Industrial parks.
— Food Security system must be made a CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT for all the citizenry.
