This monograph is a very timely publication as it highlights the
very important issue of Food Quality and Safety especially for the
developing countries plagued by food shortages, food contamination
and nutritional deficiencies. Research findings reveal a strong
possibility of providing safe and nutritious food from pesticide
contaminated legumes using simple domestic processing techniques.
Infact this study provides valuable insights into the complex issue
of food quality and safety. Germination can serve as a simple
technique for naturally fortifying legumes with essential minerals
and vitamins. Presence of pesticide residues may also hamper the
bioavailability and assimilation of micronutrients by human body.
Therefore in depth investigation on effect of different pesticides
commonly used in grain storage systems on food safety and
bioavailability of micronutrients is an important research area. In
view of contamination of food resulting in numerous health
problems, dissipation of pesticide through processing techniques
would prove a boon during the transient phase of agriculture system
moving towards sustainable agriculture.
