Other family members are Rice, Maize, Millet, Wheat, Soghium , Barley etc. A typical grain seed is a store house of nutrients for the young plant germination containing all nutrients needed for growth at planting such as Carbohydrate, Fat, Minerals, VITAMINS, Salts and Water. Cereal are extensively used for food in many parts of the world.
Average nutrients composition are : Water -‘ 10-12%, Protein 7– 13%, Fats 1.0– 5.4%,, Carbohydrate 59-79% others are Minerals ( Calcium, phosphorus and iron.) Vitamin B1 & B2 ( thiamine and riboflavin )Vit A is found in Yellow Maize pigment carotenoid.
MORPHOLOGY OF A WHOLE GRAINS CEREAL. consist of :
— Epicarp
—- Pericarp
—- Endosperm
–” Embryo.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF CEREALS AND USES.
— RICE – Rice meal
— MAIZE – Flour, Pop Corn, Corn meals , Livestock feed etc.
— WHEAT – Flour, Pasta noodles, Biscuits, Semolina /Semovita and Confectionery etc.
—- SOGHIUM – Glucose (syrup/powder ) Brewing adjunct for beer , Livestock feed etc.
—- Millet – Food pasta.
—- Barley — For beer production (malted )
ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE
— WHEAT – Flour Mills in Nigeria import about (70%) 45MMT of wheat annually while only 30% is sourced locally from the 8 northern states of kano, Jigawa, Bauchi, Kebbi, Sokoto, Adamawa etc.
— RICE – Consumption in Nigeria is about 7MMT while about 57% is produced annually.
—- MAIZE – About 60% of Maize farming is used as livestock feed . While human consumption takes more than 50% importation of Maize is common to subsidise the home grown.
WHOLE GRAINS CEREAL is a major important contributor to the nutritional development and national revenue pool.

-Antioxidants
Cashews are rich in carotenoids and Polyphenols antioxidants that helps reduce inflammation and offers protection from disease.
-Low Sugar
Cashews are low in sugar which helps reduce the risk for serious diseases such as Type 2 Diabetes, Lung disease, Heart disease, Liver disease, fatty buildup and enhances weight loss.
-Rich in Fibers
Fibers are very important to normalize bowel movement, also increases weight and size of stool thereby improving transit.
-Plant Protein
Cashews contain phytonutrients and quicker muscle repair property. Plant proteins have been linked to a lower risk of stroke heart disease
-Essential micro-nutrients
Cashew kernels are a good source of copper, magnesium and Manganese (nutrients for energy production, brain health, immunity and bone health
).
-Reduce cholesterol
Too much cholesterol in the body cause plaque buildup in arteries which can lead to atherosclerosis (cardiovascular disease).

TYPES OF COLD CHAINS
-SHOCK FREEZERS
Shock Freezers are professional equipment that controls temperature necessary for keeping products fresh for a long time.
While preserving the products the equipment makes to keep undamaged nutritional value of the products after being defrosted. The equipment is made to consists of Double Stage Semi Hermatic compressors. The Shock freezers system allows to lower the temperature very rapidly up to -180°C degrees. Freezing is provided by air coolers of it by blowing over fronted surface of the wagon. This enables to freeze down quickly in cold air flow. The room air should not exceed 35°/-40.°C. Besides, it’s proven to be a low-waste and environment friendly system.
COLDSTORAGE
This system is manufactured and installed with the entire components like it is ready to use. It could be of mobile device.
This system can be disassembled so it can be moved to other places.
Cold storage consist of the following levels and types of preserving:
-Cold-rooms 🙁 +16° / +5°C)
-Cold storage Rooms (+5°/-5°C)
-Freezing Rooms : (-18°/-23°C)
-Shock freezer :(-35°/-40°C) .
DEEPFREEZE ROOMS.
These are for preserving products such as meat, poultry etc. For a long time. They are preserved under temperatures not exceeding – 18°/-23°C. In order to isolate these rooms 150mm width sandwich panels are used.
COLD ROOMS
Cold rooms are used to keep baked goods, chocolates etc.
The cold rooms prevent bacteria from growing. Low ventilation allows workers to work without endangering their health which is very important aspect too.
