The effects of moisture and fermentation periods on the physical and biochemical properties of ‘amelonado’ and ‘hybrid’ varieties of cocoa beans

Anyidoho, Elliot Kwaku (University of Cape Coast, 2015-07)

The effect of moisture content (5-24%) on some physical and compressive properties of the ‘Amelonado’ and ‘Hybrid’ varieties of cocoa beans were studied. Alongside, the effects of fermentation periods (0-8 days) on the ...
The effects of deficit irrigation, deficit irrigation chicken manure and deficit irrigation-npk 15:15:15 interactions on the growth and yield of okra (abelmoschus esculentus) in pot and field experiments

Willie, Washington Koko Toe (University of Cape Coast, 2015-07)

The research was conducted at University of Cape Coast Research Farm, Cape Coast, Ghana, from February 2014 to February 2015. The objective of theresearch was to investigate the effects of deficit irrigation, deficit ...

Drying kinetics and quality of dried moringa leaves using different drying methods

Mbabazi, Catherine (University of Cape Coast, 2016-07)

The drying kinetics and effect quality of dried moringa leaves using different drying methods. The methods were microwave (MW) alone, solar, sun, shade, hot air alone and blanch-assisted and MW-assisted hot air drying ...
Effect of time and amount of irrigation on the growth, yield, physicochemical quality and shelf life of sweet pepper (capsicum annum var. yolo wonder)

Paku, Desmond (University of Cape Coast, 2016-07)

Knowledge of the required amount of irrigation and the time in the day to irrigate is very important for the efficient use of irrigation water and the maximization of vegetable yield and quality. In this experiment, the ...
Assessment of the impact of some preharvest and postharvest factors on pineapple juice quality and safety

Lamptey, Francis Padi (University of Cape Coast, 2019-09)

Pre- and postharvest factors play an important role in pineapple juice quality. In this study, the impact of maturity stage (unmatured, matured and overmatured), time of harvest (morning, afternoon and evening) and storage ...
Orange-fleshed sweet potato (ofsp) – cassava composite gari: effects of processing variables and storage on beta-carotene and sensory qualities

Atobrah, Emmanuel Ebo (University of Cape Coast, 2020-03)

ncorporating orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) into gari could increase the nutritional value of gari. This work sought to improve the nutritional quality of gari by incorporating OFSP into the gari. Multivariate response ...
Optimization of microwave pasteurisation and storage on the physicochemical properties of juice from three pineapple varieties

Oforiwaah, Kukuwaa Smith (UCC, 2020-07)

The objective of the present study is to investigate the effect of pineapple variety and size on the yield and optimization on the physicochemical properties of the juice pasteurised by microwave and conventional method ...
Development and Evaluation of a Semi-Automatic Pepper Seedling Transplanter

Abdulai, Karimu (University of Cape Coast, 2020-10)

Vegetable producers in Ghana are mostly small or medium scale farmers who are unable to afford expensive and sophisticated transplanters used in the developed countries. Hence there is the need for a relatively affordable ...
