    Efficacy of Freeze-Dried Carrot Pomace Powder in Improving the Quality of Wheat Bread
    (Rynnye Lyan Resources, 2023-11-12) Begum, R.; Chowdhury, M.A.F; Hasan, M.R.; Rahman, M.F.; Rahman, M.H.; Alim, M.A.
    The application of carrot pomace powder (CPP) in various foods can ensure the utilization of by-products produced from carrot processing industries as well as improve the nutritional quality of the formulated product. The quality of several composite pieces of bread was assessed using physical, chemical, microbiological, and sensory methods. The crude fibre content (13.09%), ash content (6.71%), water holding capacity (5.93 g/g), water retention capacity (4.67 g/g) and swelling capacity (11.50 mL/g) of CPP were significantly higher (p<0.05) than wheat flour whereas, oil absorption capacity (2.03 mL/ g) and bulk density (0.23 g/mL) of CPP stayed lower than wheat flour. Besides, antioxidant (52.23%), β-carotene (1.17 mg/100 g) and phenolic content (0.48 mg GAE/g) were found more in bread incorporated with 10% CPP than in other formulated breads (5%, 15% and 20%) and control sample (0%). The addition of carrot pomace powder with wheat flour in composite bread enhances better nutritional value and look of the bread by giving it a more appealing hue as well as a better taste and flavor but reduces the specific volume and springiness. The bread containing 10% CPP had a higher overall acceptance, good physical properties with better nutritional quality compared to other formulations and was equivalent to the control sample. These findings support the use of low-cost by- products like CPP as a useful functional additive for enhancing the nutritional value of composite bread and it can be commercially exploited.

    PROFITABILITY ANALYSIS OF HYV BORO RICE UNDER DIFFERENT TENURE SYSTEMS IN JHENAIDAH DISTRICT OF BANGLADESH
    (Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Research System (SAURES), Dhaka, Bangladesh, 2014-07) Pervin, L.; Yasmin, F.; Begum, R.; Rahman, R.
    An attempt has been made in this study to examine the profitability of Boro rice producing farms according to these three tenure groups such as owner, cash tenant and crop share tenant farmers. About 90 sample farmers, 30 owner farmers, 30 cash tenant farmers and 30 crop share tenant farmers were selected for the present study. The field survey was conducted over the period from July-September, 2014. The average gross returns per hectare were Tk. 108933.00, Tk. 119079.50 and Tk. 117368.48 in owner, cash tenant and crop share tenant farmers respectively. Gross return was higher of cash tenant farmer than other farmer but the total cost of production was higher in owner farmer and cash tenant farmer so their net return is lower than crop share tenant farmer. It was observed that per hectare net return was Tk. 14296.78. 27285.54 and 38615.72 for the owner. cash tenant and crop share tenant farmers respectively. Which indicates that crop share tenant farmer earned more profit than the other farmers.
