Bacterial blight (BB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae is a destructive disease of rice causing significant yield losses. Surveys were conducted to know the influence of weather parameters on epidemic development of BB in the thirty agroecological zones of Bangladesh. The maximum (55.11%) bacterial blight incidence and severity were recorded Mymensingh division (AEZs 8 and 9) while the minimum (3.25%) incidence was observed in Barishal division (AEZ 13) in both rainfed and irrigated seasons. In rainfed conditions, the maximum BB incidence and severity were recorded in hybrid varieties Aloron from Netrokona (AEZ 9) and the minimum incidence was observed in the local variety Sughondi from Jalhokhati (AEZ 13). On the other hand, in irrigated conditions, the highest BB incidence was recorded in the hybrid variety Hera-2 from Netrokona (AEZ 9) and the lowest incidence was observed in the local variety from Hobiganj (AEZ 20, 21, 22). Swarna, Puja, BRRIdhan28, BRRIdhan29, and BRRIdhan49 showed intermediate levels of infection, while hybrid Hera-2, Arize TejGold, Partex, Agrodhan, Aloron, ACI-2, and Dhani Gold showed higher level of infection (susceptibility) to BB. The data analysis on BB incidence with the weather parameters of rice growing seasons from 2015 to 2017 revealed that the rainfall distribution varied greatly within rice growing seasons over the years. The results indicated that weather parameters, viz. temperature (25-34°C), relative humidity (70-84%), and rainfall (>200mm), largely affected the prevalence, incidence and severity of BB. The correlation studies revealed that, among the climate variables, minimum temperature exhibits a negative correlation. However, rainfall, maximum temperature, morning relative humidity and evening relative humidity were found positively correlated, while wind velocity imparted a significant positive correlation with BB infection. The regional outbreak of BB indicated a considerable yield loss of rice and give rise a threat for food security of the country.

Agricultural credit usually plays a crucial role in using optimal rates of production inputs especially for resource poor farmers. The present study aims to investigate the impact of diverse land tenant types on agricultural credit receipt as well as adequacy and utilization of receipt credits. A total of 60 samples were randomly selected for interview from Sadar Upazila of Mymensingh district. The study found three types of land tenants: owner-tenant, tenant-owner and pure-tenants. The result shows that the highest percentage of land was controlled by tenant-owner (56%) followed by owner-tenant (36%) and pure-tenant (8%) of the study areas. The result of the study shows that the owner-tenant and tenant-owner of the study areas have got more access to institutional sources of agricultural credit relative to pure-tenants because of their ability to offer land as security. The pure-tenants received lower amount of agricultural credit from Bangladesh Krishi Bank (BKB) relative to the owner-tenant and tenant-owner, but they can easily get credit from BKB, if they were able to show legal papers of the rented or mortgaged lands and a recommendation of the land owner. The study found that almost 50% received credit was used by the pure-tenant farmer for family expenditure and non-farm business rather farming. The result of regression analysis indicates that 1% increase of farm size would lead to an increase of the utilization of agriculture credit for farming purposes by 35% in the study areas. The result suggests that ensuring use of agriculture credit for farming purposes could boost up productivity of the pure-tenant farmers. Asian Australas. J. Food Saf. Secur. 2022, 6 (1), 18-26

The Bornean Spotted Barb is endemic fish species and widely distributed throughout Borneo in various freshwater bodies and can be considered as a potential aquaculture candidate for food security and the ornamental trade. However there has yet to be scientific studies on the early life history and developmental stages of this species. Thus the present study reveals the embryonic development of Puntius sealei embryo, from fertilization to post-hatching using the induced breeding method. The induced spawning on P. sealei using Ovaprim hormone at a dose of 0.5 ml/kg for females and 0.25ml/kg for males respectively was successfully conducted and the embryonic development of the fertilized eggs were observed. The zygote, cleavage, blastula, gastrula, segmentation, and larval phases were the six major stages of embryogenesis that investigated in this experiment. This study contributed major knowledge to the early developmental biology of this particular species. The information will be useful for accessing the potentiality of this species for aquaculture as well as the management, and production of the species. Asian Australas. J. Food Saf.

The present study was aimed to detect and quantify major organophosphorus pesticide residues in cauliflower and cucumber collected from different retail markets of Dhaka city, Bangladesh. In this study, a total of 50 vegetable samples (30 samples of cauliflower and 20 samples of cucumber) were analyzed using Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe (QuEChERS) extraction technique and Gas Chromatography coupled with Flame Thermionic Detector (GC-FTD). Among the 30 analyzed samples of cauliflower, 5 samples (16.7% of the total number of samples) contained residues of chlorpyrifos, quinalphos, acephate and dimethoate, where 4 samples contained multiple pesticide residues. All the contaminated samples of cauliflower contained residues above the EU-MRL. On the other hand, among the 20 analyzed samples of cucumber, only 2 samples (10% of the total number of samples) contained residues of quinalphos and chlorpyrifos at a level being below the EU-MRL. This study reflects the overall scenario of pesticide residues remain in cauliflower and cucumber purchased from different local markets of Dhaka city, which will help the consumer to be aware of their health and safety. The findings derived from this study reveals the public health concern due to the potential of pesticide toxicity in vegetables for the consumers. Therefore, continuous monitoring on the use of pesticides in vegetables should be strengthened. Asian Australas. J. Food Saf. Secur. 2021, 5 (2), 63-70

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of discriminate and indiscriminate use of colistin sulfate on body weight and haematological parameters in broiler. Day-old-broiler chicks were collected and reared for up to 31 days. The chicks were randomly divided into control, discriminate and indiscriminate antibiotic group. The discriminate group was treated with colistin sulfate antibiotic (Eskolis-24) for one week (from 16th to 22th day) followed by one week withdrawal period. In case of indiscriminate group, the poultry were treated with colistin sulfate antibiotic for 14 days (from 16th to 29th day) without any withdrawal period until sacrifice. The body weight of the birds were recorded daily. The mean body weight was highest in indiscriminate group (1408.22±133.49 gm) followed by discriminate group (1330.15±134.93 gm) and control group (1243.81±173.19 gm). The differences among means of three groups were not statistically significant. The Total erythrocyte count (Million/mm3) of control, discriminate, and indiscriminate groups were 2.53± 0.05, 2.56±0.08, and 2.52±0.08 respectively. The hemoglobin (gm%) were 7.06± 0.09, 7.03± 0.12, and 7.11±0.09 respectively and the Packed Cell Volume (%) were 19.66±1.11, 19.33±0.95, and 20.16±0.70 respectively. The results found were not statistically significant among the groups for TEC, Hb and PCV respectively. Total lymphocyte (%) count were 67.16±0.60, 70±1.15, and 71.83±1.30 respectively. Total neutrophil (%) count were 32.83± 0.60, 28.83±1.42, and 26.83±1.10 respectively. Total eosinophil (%) count were 0± 0, 1±0.44, and 1.16±0.40 respectively. Total basophil (%) count were zero (0) and total monocyte (%) count were 0± 0, 0.17±0.17, and 0.17±0.17 respectively. In our experiment, both discriminate and indiscriminate groups showed no significant differences of lymphocyte, neutrophil, eosinophil, basophil and monocyte. Therefore, discriminate and indiscriminate use of colistin sulfate for two weeks has no effect on haematological parameters of broiler poultry. Further experiment needed for more concise conclusion.

A study was investigated to estimate the current status of health hazardous organochlorine insecticide DDT and its metabolites DDE and DDD in different species of dry fish. To achieve the goal of this experiment, ten different sun-dried fish samples were collected from different markets of Dhaka city. The concentration of DDT, DDE and DDD was determined using the capillary column coupled to Gas Chromatograph with Electron Captured Detector (GC-ECD). Most of the dry fishes, seven out of ten samples, were found to be contaminated with DDT along with its metabolites DDE and DDD ranging from 0.029-1.22 mg/kg which is a serious concern because of the nature of long persistency and bioaccumulation of DDT in the environment. The highest concentration of DDT (1.22 mg/kg) was observed in Pampus chinensis dry fish whereas low concentration was detected in Otolithoides pama (0.029 mg/kg). Asian Australas. J. Food Saf.

A combination of nutritionally inferior diets and improper feeding practices are major contributing factors to the development of childhood malnutrition. Complementary feeding improvement should be of highest priority for nutrition of infant and young children containing all essential nutrients at required amount. The objective of this study was designed to investigate the inclusion of weaning food formulation and evaluating compositional and functional properties of the products. The analysis undertaken in this study was infant food formulation, proximate composition, mineral concentration and sensory properties. The moisture content in this study ranged from 1.49 ± 0.12 to 3.89 ±0.12, crude protein from 15.09 ± 0.05 to 16.79± 0.01, crude fat from 11.11 ± 0.07 to 12.80 ± 0.00, total ash from 2.06 ± 0.03 to 2.21 ± 0.00, carbohydrate from 65.9740 ± 0.24 to 68.2641 ± 0.14 and energy value ranged from 431.68 ± 0.05 to 449.18 ± 0.57. From the result provided, sample-A contained the highest protein, moisture, fat content than sample-B. But carbohydrate and energy are highest in sample-B than sample-A. The two macro minerals mg/100 g of Ca and Zn in the study were ranged from lower 0.60±0.07 to 0.79±0.01 and 1.05±0.01 to 2.44±0.06 respectively. Beta-carotene is varied from 0.90±o.01 to 1.17±0.00. Sensory parameters such as colour, appearance, texture, taste, aroma and overall acceptability is high in sample-A than to sample-B. Finally, from the general trend observed in this study that both the weaning foods prepared from cereal, legume, pulse flour provided better nutritional and functional compositions to meet nutrient dense of infant foods.

A field survey was conducted to investigate the farmers’ socio-economic status and management practices of buffaloes along with profitability analysis of buffalo rearing at Madargonj upazila of Jamalpur district. The data were collected during October to December 2018 from 60 buffalo keepers randomly selected from four unions of Madargonj upazila through pre-tested and pre-designed interview schedule. Buffalo rearing was practiced by the middle (30-40 years) aged farmers (51.7%) and almost three fourth of the farmers were illiterate. Buffalo keepers (40%) had medium sized family and belonged to small category of farmers (50%). Farmers usually purchased one pair of buffaloes and reared for 2 years but they (86.7%) reared buffaloes as their family heritage without any training. Majority of the farmers reared crossbred buffaloes having herd size of 4-10 buffaloes. Buffalo houses were constructed by straw (63.4%), tin (28.3%) and only 8.3% half building. Buffaloes were fed usually with locally available river side grasses and concentrate feeding was not found in majority of cases (75%). Natural service was the major practice for breeding of their buffaloes. The most prevalent disease is foot and mouth disease although buffaloes were affected by others. Most of the farmers (66.7%) performed wallowing of their buffaloes once a day. Yearly expenditure, gross income and net income were Tk. 9570, Tk. 26400 and Tk. 16830; respectively indicating that buffalo rearing is highly profitable in Madargonj. The annual food and cloth purchasing capacity of the buffalo farmers were found to be increased to 65.60 and 57.24%, respectively along with other parameters. The findings of this study clearly indicated that socio-economic profile of buffalo farmers was improved through buffalo rearing although the management practices need to be improved with scientific approaches.

The present research work was carried out to evaluate the qualities of borhani prepared by curd using whole milk, skim milk and full cream powder milk. In this purposes, three types of borhani were prepared, these were grouped as; A: Borhani prepared from whole milk curd, B: Borhani prepared from skim milk curd and C: Borhani prepared from full cream powder milk curd. The prepared borhani samples were subjected to organoleptic, chemical and microbiological qualities. After performed physical examination, for sample A it was found that there was no significant difference in color and appearance (17.67±0.33) but there was significant difference (p<0.05) in smell and taste (47.33±0.33), body and consistency (26.33±0.33) and total physical scores (91.33±0.88) of the three borhani samples. Chemical analysis showed that for group A; there were significant differences with others (p<0.01) in contents (%) of fat (2.95±0.33), total solids (TS) (18.15±0.16), acidity (0.80±0.01), pH (4.25±0.02), moisture (81.85±0.16), CHO (10.50±0.93) and (p<0.05) in contents (%) of ash (1.82±0.02), protein (2.88±0.02). The result of chemical parameter showed that borhani prepared from whole milk (sample A) was best among the samples. However, there were no significant differences in coliform count and yeast and mold count but there were significant differences (p<0.01) in total viable count (60.67±2.33). Cost analysis showed that samples B and C was cheap than sample A. It can be concluded that even costly; the nutritive value and the consumer preference of borhani from whole milk was better than the others. Asian Australas. J. Food Saf. Secur. 2020, 4 (2), 58-65

The aim of this study was to investigate the nutritional and microbial quality of yoghurt from different districts of Bangladesh. Protein content was higher (4.56g/kg) in SB2 (sample Bogura-2), fat content was also higher (5.67g/kg) in SB3 (sample Bogura-3). The acidity found ranged from 0.77% to 0.98%, pH obtained ranged between 3.6 to 4.98 and total solid retained between 23.08 to 26.95 for all samples. Highest Total Viable count (TVC) value was found in SB2 (68.9×104±0.23 CFU/ml) and lowest value was observed in SJ2 (23.01×104±0.43 CFU/ml). No mold and yeast were found in the collected samples during study period that indicates all are follow hygiene procedure but all of the yogurt samples were contaminated with fewer amount (5.6±0.66 to 12.56±0.44 CFU/ml) of coliform. The mean value of acceptability score of yogurt sample was higher (99.2) in SB2 (sample Bogura-2) during the study period. Organoleptically, the overall quality of all yogurt samples was good. Considering the pH, acidity, total solids, protein, fat, carbohydrate and ash values for all yogurt samples collected from Bogura had better quality as compared to other samples. From the present study, it was found that all of the samples collected from Bogura district were much better quality compared to other samples in terms of nutritional, biochemical and microbial aspect. All of the samples were found in contaminated with lower amount of coliform so necessary actions should be taken in every step of processing, maturing and marketing to overcome this problem.
