Horse gram is one such legume, which is easy to grow, resistant to pests and diseases, appeal to the eye and to the palate and highly nutritious. Horse gram is one of the important grain legume crops of India. It is essentially a crop for the dry tropics and is grown in area of moderate rainfall. It is drought resistant and adoptable to poor soil conditions unlike other pulses. It can also be grown successfully under irrigation. In India, it is grown on light sandy soils, red loams, black cotton soils and gravels. However, water logging and excess alkaline soils have adverse effect on the crop. Grain legumes differ in their physico-chemical characteristics and these variations influence the quality of grains. In recent years, physical and functional behavioral parameters have been proved to be of considerable value in studying the variability in morphological and biochemical characters in the legumes around the world and their suitability in food product development. Hence, it is important to know the variation in the quality of grains. Such information would be useful in selecting the varieties for production/manufacture of various food preparations.References

Adolescents account for 22.8 per cent of Indian population; that means 230 million Indians are adolescents in the age group of 10 to 19 years. Further, the adolescent girl's population is found to be 22.8 per cent in Karnataka which accounts for 5.9 lakhs.- Functional Properties and Proximate Composition of Elite Finger Millet [Eleusine coracana) Genotypes

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana) is an important minor cereal cultivated for food in the Indian sub continent as well as in many African countries. The nutritive value of finger millet is higher than that of rice and equal to that of wheat. The average fiber content of 3.6 per cent unlike 0.2 per cent in rice or 1.2 per cent in bajra helps in maintenance of health in many ways. Carbohydrate content (72.0%) of finger millet is slightly higher than that of bajra or maize and less than rice (78.2%). It is also low in fat (1.3%) and contains 7.39 per cent of protein. Finger millet is rich in calcium (300-340 mg/100g), iron (5-15 g/100g), vitamin B12 (0.4 to 3 mg/100g) and seven essentia! amino acids. Besides this, iodine content (101 μg/kg) is reported to be highest among food grains.- Study of Functional Properties and Nutrient Composition of Wheat Grass (Triticum aestivum) Juice Powder

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana) is an important minor cereal cultivated for food on the Indian sub continent as well as in many African countries. It is an important cereal by acreage, excellent storage properties of the grain and value cereal, nutritionally, physiologically, medicinally and functionally reflecting the physico chemical characteristics of the grain. The average fiber content of 3.6 per cent unlike 0.2 per cent in rice or 1.2 per cent in bajra helps In maintenance of health.

There is a progressive rise in industrial employment of women, particularly after the introduction of economic liberalization in 1991. Among all the industries, employment of women in electronics industry has increased to 18.8 per cent because the nature of job makes it suitable for employing women. It is expected that such employment of women leads to improved economic status and overall quality of life. It is presumed that increased income leads to improvement in the health and nutritional status of women themselves, particularly their body size in addition to influence of age, marital status, biological variables, energy intake and hereditary factors.- Prevalence of Upper Body Obesity as Determined by Waist Hip Ratio (WHR) and Risk Factors Associated with IT

Upper Body Obesity (UBO) as determined by Waist Hip Ratio (WHR) is essentially a disorder of energy metabolism characterized by an excess of body fat. It is often associated with a wide range of metabolic abnormalities and degenerative diseases. Further it creates psychological problems and reduces the quality of life. It is not conducive to good health in case of affluent population with sedentary lifestyles and abundant availability of food.- Preference for Food Distribution and Food Beliefs among Women under Special Conditions in Sericulture House Holds

Karnataka has a pride place in mulberry silk production and is the leading centre for traditional sericulture in India. Karnataka's pioneering efforts in expanding sericulture industry with the World Bank's assistance has motivated considerable number of farmers to take-up sericulture. Among all the subsidiary occupations, sericulture occupies an enviable position from the point of providing additional income. It is estimated that sericulture fetches about Rs. 5,000/acre as against cash crops like sugarcane and potato where the net income is only Rs. 3,000. Status of food distribution among households of sericulture is poor in relation to their nutritional requirements. The situation is strongly supported by the food beliefs among the women folk of the enterprise. Looking into these facts, the present study was undertaken to understand the food distribution order and food beliefs of sericulture households in Bangalore rural district.- Nutritional Status of Women in Sericulture Farming
