Published

on

………@WUFAS AGRONET, We don’t know more than Food.
Earned ” FAO” TOP FAN Barge.
— SPICES ARE POTENT SOURCE OF ESSENTIAL OILS , VITAMINS AND MINERALS THAT STIMULATE THE OLFACTORY ORGAN WITH PLEASING SMELL — eg : ginger, cloves, herbs etc.

Demand for SPICES and HERBS is ever increasing globally especially in the Asian countries of China and India the traditionally European suppliers are themselves becoming spices importers because the domestic supply cannot meet domestic demand. Nigeria is among the top five nations that export ginger others are China, India, Jamaica and Serra Leone while the major markets are UK, USA, Japan, Canada, Germany, Belgium and Middle East.
European markets are looking for higher quality products now more than ever.
Data from Nigeria Ministry of Agricultureand Rural Development put the demand at 65MMT while production was put at 31MMT.
Nigeria is endowed with enomourse capacity in the crop production for local and export purposes given the enabling atmosphere of peace and stability.
QUALITY Challenges;- In accessing the major markets the quality standards has to be met such as Conformity Assessment Standards (CAS) which is based on Organic Production Standard, and Global Good Agricultural Practices (GAP).certification.
Back home in Nigeria, Ginger obtain from Kaduna is of higher quality compared to others from other African countries. Among the dominant communities producing high quality ginger are Jaba, Kagarko and Kachia Local Government Areas with favourable soil as well as good climatic conditions. Towards this, a complete agricultural revolution by the state Goverment coupled with relative peaceful coexistence will not only boost the state revenue but national economy.

REQUIREMENTS FOR OUTSTANDING PRODUCTION AND PROCESSING.
— Equipping farmers with the right skills that will give them knowledge and confidence that will conform them to higher quality standards.
— Right skills in Processing Technology especially drying conditions and equipment.
— PACKAGING to meet the international standards.
— Powdered ginger is utilised in the production of variety of recipes as Cakes, Cookies, Bread, Cracker, Ale & Beer. Nigeria’s dishes are rich in exotic spices of ginger.

— During the Marketing Board era Ginger was under the Groundnut marketing Board and controlling the activities was Wholesome ,the era should be revisited with minor update to meet the present realities .
— Same for other Spices Cloves, Herbs etc.
— Massive /Aggressive commercial organic agricultural production of Ginger and others must be embraced.

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.
