Practice And Utility Of Soybeans (Glycins Max)In Five Rural Communities In Ikwuano Local Government Area Of Abia State.
ABSTRACT
The practice and. utility of soybean
was investigated. in Ikwuano rural counties of Abia State, Nigeria. Hundred. households
were used. for the study. (4uestionnair, laboratory and. chemical analysis wee
were used. for collecting data. Results showed. that majority (93.83/.) of the
respondents have knowledge of Soybean while just 1o16 do not have such
knowledge of Soybean. Forty-six per cent (4653%) of the households had eaten
soybean. Forms of soybean consumed. by respondents including as Soup (36%), Weaning food (15%), .ticara (9%) and Moi Mdi (i2%) Four major processing

and Mill. D = Pick danaes, Roast and Mill. Proximate composition of Soybean
flour processed through the various methods adopted y the respondents indicated
that sample A (41.9c$) had the highest protein value while sample B had the
least (30.42%) and sample C were significantly higher than sample B, though the
protein content between sample A, C, and D were comparable. The fat content of
sample A, C and D were significant while sample B was not significant. There
was slight variations in the Iron values of the samples0 There is need for
further education on diversified methods of soybean use in the traditional food
consumption pattern of the people.
