Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda

Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda has been established as a full-fledged State University, having unique honour of being the “First Agricultural University of Bundelkhand Region”. The University was notified vide Government Order No. 301/79-V-1-10-1 (Ka) 27-2009 Lucknow and established on 2nd March 2010 under Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) 1958 Gazette-Adhiniyam 2010. Initially it was named as “Manyawar Shri Kanshiram Ji University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda”, which was changed as “Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda” vide Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) Adhiniyam, 2014, No. 1528(2)/LXXIX-V-1-14-1(Ka)-13-2014 dated 4th December 2014. The University has been established for the development of the agriculture and allied sectors in the Uttar Pradesh on the whole and Bundelkhand region in particular. It is committed to serve the Bundelkhand region with trinity concept, i.e. complete integration of teaching, research and extension for the development of agriculture and allied sectors in order to ensure food security and enhance socio-economic status of inhabitants. State Government of Uttar Pradesh has assigned the University with the responsibilities of (a) human resource generation and development, (b) generation and perfection of technologies, and (c) their dissemination to the farmers, orchardists and dairy farmers in the Chitrakoot Dham and Jhansi divisions. The Chirtrkoot Dham Division consists of four districts, namely Banda, Chitrakoot (Karvi), Mahoba and Hamirpur whereas Jhansi Division consists of Jhansi, Lalitpur and Jalaun (Orai) districts.

    Development and evaluation of guava-ginger blended RTS beverage
    (Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda-210001, Uttar Pradesh, India, 2021-10-10) Rajpoot, Shankar; Awasthi, Priya
    The present investigation entitled "Development and evaluation of guava-ginger blended RTS beverage” was carried out at Post Harvest Technology Laboratory and Biochemistry Laboratory, College of Horticulture, BUAT, Banda (U.P.) during 2020-21 to develop guava-ginger blended ready to serve and also to study biochemical changes in developed RTS during storage period up to six months. The pulp/juices of guava and ginger were blended in different proportions to develop RTS. There were eight combinations of blend pulp/juices. All treatments were standardized as juice or pulp 10%, TSS 10°B, acidity 0.3% at initial stage and were stored at ambient temperature (28+4°C). All treatments were consumable up to 6 months on the basis of sensory evaluation by the panel of 7 semi-trained judges. It was observed that all the sensory characteristics continuously decrease with storage period. The biochemical properties were observed in all treatments at 0 day and 180 days. The RTS product developed by different combinations of guava + ginger is beneficial for health point of view. The combination of T2(90% guava + 10% ginger) was found superior in overall acceptability (7.38) during 180 days of storage in terms of organoleptic evaluation. The RTS prepared by combination of T: (30 % guava + 70 %) ginger had minimum change in mean value of TSS (08.2%), Brix: acid ratio (34.58%), Total sugars (1.55%) and reducing sugars (03.75%) and in comparison to other blending ratios. It was recorded that during the storage the TSS, brix: acid ratio, total sugar, total sugars: titratable acidity ratio, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar, nonenzymatic browning and pH were increased in all the treatments while titratable acidity, ascorbic acid, protein, total phenols were decreased with storage period.
