Study of effect of storage time on the functional properties of wheat (Triticum Aestivum) and Bambrara Groundnut (Voandzeia Subteranea) Flour Blends.
The flour blends comprised of wheat (WT) 1005, Banbaranut (BG) 100%, WBZO 70% wheat and 30% Bambaradnut, WB20 80% wheat and 20% Bambara and WBSO, 50% wheat and 50% Bambara. The blends was stored and monitor for their functional properties over a period of four months. The results of the determination of these properties showed that there is variations in the samples functional propterties.
Sample BG and WT had high foam formation after three months of storage, i.e. 125 and 160 respectively but this property decrease at the fourth month. Also in water absorption capacity, the result increased gradually up to three months and started decreasing as observed in BG 50 – 62 AND wt 40 56.
All these results are based on statistical analysis at P < 0.05 Significant level.

CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CULTIVATION OF BAMBARA GROUNDNUTIt is mostly monocropping in a
selected plot of land with suitable sandy soil 82% of households in
North central are 67% in kavango planted Bambara groundnut in 1993.
Estimating an average of 1400m2 per farm cropped with Bambara
groundnut, the total production areas sums up to around 3000ha.
Production figure are very variable, depending on the rainy season. Due
to wide spacing 10 – 12 plants/m2 and lack of improved varieties yield
