Quality Management System in Millet and Sorghum

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Millets and Millet Technology

Abstract

The quality of all types of food and their management are playing a major role in the agriculture and food processing sectors. The viewpoint of quality control and related parameters mainly affect and control quality promise. To enhance utilization, sorghum and millet grains need to be improved beyond the elimination of deterioration caused by diseases and insects. In previous years, numerous instances have arisen in the agricultural-food segments, for example, an incidence of foodborne illnesses and the manufacture of disease-risk food products. Sorghum and millets are mainly used in development of several food products and feed in a traditional manner. In current time these are regularly utilized in development of food products, exclusively healthy food and gluten-free food products. These extensive use directives preferred quality factors for quality evolution using selection of many biochemical approaches. Some common factors which are commonly concerned are physical characteristics, biochemical composition, and food safety. Systems for quality control in millets and sorghum from many authorized forums and their major aims are to simplify occupation in the grains. Many multidisciplinary methodologies are required presently for supporting the quality control and regulations in development of millets and sorghum-based food products and for value chain.
