Unsafe food can cause serious and fatal problems. In order to help them with this, the ISO 22000 food safety management system was developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).</span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">ISO 22000 helps food producers to identify and control food safety hazards and ensure that their products are safe for public consumption. In addition it helps products to cross country borders and bring to people the food that they can trust. ISO 22000 applies to any organization in the food chain, from farm to fork. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">In simple words, you must take all possible actions to make sure that your foods are safe to use. though this is the simple meaning there are formal guidelines as mentioned below to follow in order to obtain the ISO 22000 certification.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Develop a Food Safety Policy for the organization.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">This is the general
practice since many years. Still in most of our home we used to dry things using this sun drying method. Sun drying is very effective in places with long
periods of hot sun specially countries near to equator. Also anywhere with a minimum
temperature of 28 – 30 C with less relative humidity is suitable. Normally
foods take several days to dry thoroughly. Place on a mesh screen and cover
with a second screen to protect from dirt and animals.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><u><span style="font-size: large;">Air drying</span></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Same as sun drying, air
drying is also a common practice of dehydrating foods. The main difference is
that air drying usually takes place in the shade. This is suitable for foods
which need less heat to dry such as leaves and herbs.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Your home oven can be
used to slowly dry food at temperatures around 60 C. Normally ovens are designed
for higher temperature applications. However you can use this method for some home made
quick dried foods. Make sure to maintain temperature around 60 C or below. Otherwise
foods will be cooked instead of drying. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you have a small
amount of food to dehydrate, you can consider using your microwave set on
‘defrost’ to dry fruits and herbs. In general, microwaved fruits will take 20
to 40 minutes to dry fully, but keep checking on them so you don’t overdo it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 115%;"><o:p><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">If you are planning to
make lot of dehydrated foods it is advisable to find a commercial dehydrator with more
surface area as the amount of time take to dehydration process is anywhere from
5 to 14 hours. Properly packed, dehydrated fruits can last up to five years and
vegetables up to ten. If you are going to consume non-meat items within a year,
keep them in freezer bags or reusable storage bags with the air squeezed out.
For long-term preservation, vacuum packing is the best.</span></p>Agri Business Knowledgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05252233049981696518noreply@blogger.com0India20.593684 78.96288-7.7165498361788458 43.80663 48.903917836178849 114.11913tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864984391657326401.post-66713769111525627782020-05-10T13:10:00.008+05:302021-05-29T12:31:53.543+05:30Five Ways to Find Buyers for Agriculture Products<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPwNhNFqdHo_jcHARLCVnSm2Zq_XaCFOhF07i6lUTOz8KnYB_c3Wtx9pxanePD2DSBc8EOKGbDcL0X9P3JHrVGvQUFYRJtjhYtxX9J48yMvAyCcTGetrH2SLP7i1q6E5OMJgIXsojBxPI/s1600/how+to+property.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="885" data-original-width="1600" height="220" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPwNhNFqdHo_jcHARLCVnSm2Zq_XaCFOhF07i6lUTOz8KnYB_c3Wtx9pxanePD2DSBc8EOKGbDcL0X9P3JHrVGvQUFYRJtjhYtxX9J48yMvAyCcTGetrH2SLP7i1q6E5OMJgIXsojBxPI/s400/how+to+property.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Selecting a suitable property is directly involved with the cost of products. Main property you need for an agriculture business is a land, if you are going to start an agriculture farming business or building if you are thinking about a value added products. </span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Regardless of the property type you have to consider below factors when selecting. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1</b>.<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span><b>Distance to end market and raw materials</b> – If you select a place that is so far from your market or raw material supply, you have to add extra transport cost and wastage cost to the production. Therefore it is recommended to minimize the distance from your market and raw material supply to your factory or farm. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2.</b><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span><b>Infrastructure availability</b> - Main infrastructures you need for your business are Electricity, Transport and Water. Therefore when selecting a property you have to check whether these basic infrastructures are available or not. In addition to these, Telephone, Internet, Laboratories may be needed depending on your business nature. You have to check those required infrastructure availability too. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>3.</b><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span><b>Surrounding Environment Condition</b> – Surrounding area may be close to a protected area such as bird sanctuary, national park, etc. In this case you may have to adjust your business process according to the guidelines given by relevant authorities. Sometimes your property may be close to a rural village where poor people live; in this case you can have benefits by recruiting some cheap, unskilled labors. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>4.</b><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span><b>Future Value of the Property</b> – Most of the time value of the property increases with the time since the population grows and the demand increases. However there are some cases, which decrease your future value of the property. As an example, if any other business starts near to your property which emits some harmful gas, waste or smell, then your property value will be decrease with the time. Therefore better to get an idea about what is happening near your property. Anyway if you can gain some supernormal profit and recover your investment within short period, no need to worry about the property value. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>5.</b><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span><b>Method of Acquiring</b> – There are many ways to acquire the property you need such as Short term lease, Long term Lease, Purchasing, etc. That depends on your business plan. If you are planning long term business in that property, better to go for purchasing or long term lease (20 -30 Years). It will reduce future problems. In the other hand you can lease the property for short term purpose if you are not planning to continue the business in same place. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>6.</b><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span><b>Distance to other support services</b> – It is better if you can find a place where other support services also close by. Other services mean the Banks, Apartments, Supermarkets, Hospitals, and Governments offices. Your property value as well as your investments also will increase with all of these services. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It will be not easy to find a property which fulfills all the above factors. However you have to study all the above factors properly and select the optimum solution when selecting a property for the business. If you consider all of these factors, the property itself can generate good profit in future.</span></div>

<ul>
<li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Select some medium size fresh cassava roots. Smaller ones and larger ones are not suitable for this. Better to select cassava roots which has diameter of 10 -18 mm. however you can choose the chips size as per the market requirement. </span></span></li>

<li><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Cut the root into small slices. You should careful to maintain 1-2 mm thickness for slices and the same thickness for each slice. Otherwise the crispy quality will be less in your cassava chips.

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Chilies do prefer areas that are warmer
and with adequate supply or access to water. The optimal field capacity of
moisture content must be 60%. The fields should not lead to water logging because
chili plants do not grow well in water logging areas since it may lead to many issues.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Regarding the alkalinity of the soil, it is recommended to maintain the pH scale range between 6-7. Also Optimum temperatures range for chili cultivation is between 20°C - 27°C. In colder environments where the temperature
is below 10°C, there is a tendency of ceasing to grow. Temperatures higher than 30C enhances the crops
metabolic reactions and therefore it may causes flower abortion.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

to form a fine moisturized soil which is important for the plantation and growth. The
planting season is throughout the year. Therefore farmers from different regions have
their own schedules depending on their weather patterns. Ridging the land is advisable to avoid water
logging and normal spacing is 45cm between and for walkways, about 50cm gaps are maintained. </span></span><br />

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ginger consumes high minerals/fertilizers quantities. Requirement of nutrition quantities change with the growth of the plant. Rhizomes absorb high nitrogen and potassium quantities and average quantities of also absorb phosphorus and magnesium.</span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Nitrogen is required for dividing more rhizomes, therefore nitrogen requirement is high during the beginning period of the growth which is 120-135 days from the planting. Ginger plants consume average 40kg phosphorus per hectare. Always remember to apply phosphorus fertilizers before planting ginger plants. </span></span><br />

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Both chemical and organic fertilizers are good for ginger and it is better to use organic fertilizers as much as possible as it is good for healthy yield. If you use organic fertilizers, 20-30 tons per hectare is enough. </span></span><br />

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If the pH value is below 5, it is advisable to use dolomite to maintain the pH value. 1-2 tons per hectare is usually enough in this case. please make sure not to mix dolomite and chemical fertilizers together. </span></span><br />

months after the plantation, ginger leaves start to turn yellow colour and start

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Most of the time, ginger is manually harvested by simply lifting the clumps with a spade or a fork.
The harvested rhizomes are separated from the trunk and thoroughly washed in

<span lang="EN" style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">Fenced lands are not suitable for this purpose.
Depending on the need for well water, water dependence is harmful to crops.
Well drained soils are preferred. Between 1000 - 1200 mm of annual rainfall is
preferred.</span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 18.0pt;">Planting should be done by turning the soil into pots
and pallets. One and a half feet between plants and one and a half feet between
rows is appropriate. Otherwise, the plants can be planted as 1 foot between
rows and 2 feet between rows. When planting, the green part of the plant should
not be covered with soil. Watering should not be done until 4 days after
planting. Cultivation is successful with maximum sunlight. But water should be
applied. </span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 24px;">If the sunlight is low, the leaves become darker, causing them to fall down, resulting in reduced yields. If the leaves grow thin, the water supply should be increased. The brown leaves should be carefully removed.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 18pt;"> Too much water can cause root rot. Watering once a week is sufficient after the first week.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 18pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 18pt;">Weeds of aloe vera should be suppressed for cultivation so as not to damage the roots. This is a task that needs to be done very carefully. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Despite the variety in nature and generic composition, it is certain
that all ginger types grow in the same soil and atmospheric conditions. Little warm weather, with humid climate will cause the crops to grow nutritious healthy. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Sandy and clay loam mostly red loam are recommended, this is due to the fact that they are rich in humus. A farmer is also not advised to grow ginger on the same field year after year .this may negatively affect the growth of the newly germinated plants .when preparing the land ,the field should be ploughed 2 to 3 times to thoroughly to remove all unwanted rots including weeds. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ginger plant need good water supply, hence In regions where rain is scarcely,
farmers have to use irrigation methods to provide sufficient water. If the farmer wants to do the plantation by using rain water best possible time is just before the rain season start. For asian countries like India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka this period is May to June in each year. Late in planting rhizomes will result poor yield. however little larger rhizomes will give good yield. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">In general gap between plants is 25-30 cm this gap is purely depend on the soil condition. Rhizomes grow near the surface level, and so it is enough to place the rhizomes 4-10cm deep when planting. </span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Papaya can be grown in

the plantation which have less </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">pests and diseases problems to the plantation. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Hence these seasons have a potential of giving you
better yield. There are basically three (3) seasons which papaya can be
planted. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is not recommended to plant during the winter. but in south asian countries, there is no considerable temperature drop during the winter and so papaya can be planted during any time of the year. </span></div>

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For steady growth, plants required necessary and appropriate
organic substances. Manure are simply waste products of cows, goats, pigs etc or you can use fertilisers. </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Nutritional and mineral contents like Boron, Magnesium, potassium, phosphorus,
calcium which are essential for the crop’s growth and strength. Manure can be done just near to the root of the plant, the by making a pit or any other suitable arrangement. </span><br />
<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Realistically, it takes five month from
plantation to a point where a plant begins producing flowers. fertilisers should be applied at
frequent intervals to build a strong and healthy plant. Main content in fertilisers are nitrogen which formulates a strong
lignin tissue, potassium which formulates plant cell walls and phosphorus. Annually
a single plant takes a dose of 400g, 250 g, and 400g of nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium
respectively. Always remember the fertilisation</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> should be done with a proper water supply.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Boron and calcium play a important role in papaya plantation, as the papaya yield might be wasted if these minerals are not sufficient.</span><br />

<span style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Nothing makes a farmer
happy other than harvesting time. Papayas are left on the tree until they fully
mature. When the appropriate harvesting time comes, the papayas are carefully pluck and sorted on the
basis of weight, size and colour.The readiness of the fruit can be seen when the
papaya’s colour changes from green to pale green or yellow. The more yellowish the colour
is, the ready it is to be reaped. Proper care need to be taken when packing the
fruits because they be easily distorted.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

a farmer must ensure that the field is well prepared before the plantation of seeds or plants.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The cassava is mainly planted by planting stems. The
stem of the mature cassava plant is cut and plant on the loosen soil. These stems grows and forms other cassava plants. There are few precautions one
must follow in order to successfully transplant the cassava. Farmers must ensure that they doesn’t plant an immature stem. This may result unsuccessful plantation when planted. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In order to healthy grow, fertilizer is also one of the major
contributor. The common types of fertilizer
used are the D compound (nitrogenous), and urea fertilizer
(potassium). alternately farmers use manure. The
main component of fertilizer are nitrogen, phosphorous and potash. Though the fertilizer is important, it has some negative effects on the land if it is over used. Therefore best way to supply the required fertilizer is to use organic or compost as it is natural product. in general 300 tons may approximately required for a hectare but it may differ on the soil condition and other various factors. Fertilization normally do twice a year near the root of
the plant.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cassava also called as Manioc or tapioca roots is a very popular food among many and can be cultivated as an economically viable crop.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cassava is one of the most grown crops in the world, especially in West Africa and South America. It is also known by the scientific name "Manihot Escalante". According to reports Nigeria is the top producer and owns 40% of all West Africa. While land preparation and treatment of cassava may seems complicated or threatening, it is a simple, step-by-step process, this article will take you through the high plantation procedures that will help to make your cultivation a success. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><u>The use of Cassava</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are many benefits and nutritional benefits. In fact, it is used as a staple in many African countries and Asian countries. This clearly indicates that they make up about 60% of their daily diet. Below are some of the benefits of manioc.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>As a main meal.</li>
<li>In the making of alcohol</li>
<li>As an ingredient in animal feed.</li>
<li>Fried Cassava To make Chips and Snacks.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The manioc can be classified into two main types, one with a bitter taste called "bitter manihot" and one with a sweet taste called "sugar manihot". It has been clearly demonstrated that both varieties can be grown using the same techniques.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b>Benefits of manioc</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There is no doubt as to why manioc is grown in many parts of the world. Not only for export and revenue collection, but also for nutritional purposes. There are many benefits to the crop. The cause of heart attacks is the presence of cholesterol in the coronary arteries. This causes blockage of the vessels and therefore reduces blood flow. In this situation, a person may suffer from a heart attack. The manioc has a mineral content that can cleanse the depletion of cholesterol from your blood vessels. It also helps the digestive system and the kidneys.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><u>Land preparation and environmental conditions</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Manioc plants can survive on any type of soil, but sand and loam are the most favarable for optimal growth. This is due to the high soil moisture storage capacity of the two soils and the nutrients required for cassava tubers and leaves.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This crop grows well in acidic soils. pH range 4 - 6.8. Excessive alkaline soil can cause unwanted damage and impact on plants, including their products. Therefore, farmers check their fields for acid content to prevent this happening. They are interested in knowing what the acid range of their land is and so farmers test pH readings by using litmus papers or any other suitable method and apply lime to their fields to reduce the percentage of alkaline. This is done to regulate the alkalinity of their field, as lime contains acid.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At the end of the season, the key to a good harvest is temperature. The manioc works best when the temperature range is between 27-39 degrees Celsius. This growth can be supported by warm weather conditions and a humid climate.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Before planting, weeds should be completely removed from the field during the pre-planting season. This is often done by plowing the field two or three times to make sure every weed is gone. The amount of lime added to the field can be estimated at about 5.5 kg per hectare in some areas. The recommended spacing between plants is 1 m.</div>
