The Impact

The aim of this paper is to link the economic and marketing perspectives by means of the quantitative method to answer the question of whether traditional food products may play an important role in sustainable region development ensuring economic viability, and how (if at all) marketing should support this process. Due to the lack of unambiguous theoretical findings—the theory has not established a model of the impact of regional products on the food sector in the region and, further on, the economy—an atheoretical approach should be applied, which without priori findings (without favouring individual variable) will lead to an assessment of the above-described impact. Using the Bayesian approach, the authors have measured the above relations with respect to the case of Poland. The basis of the study is provided by a database developed by the authors for 16 Polish NUTS2 regions where lists of official traditional food products were compiled. Using the chosen method, a group of explanatory variables has been proposed (among them, a number of regional products) as factors potentially responsible for the dependent variable (value of agriculture production in the NUTS2 regions). The results indicate that the number of traditional food products does not determine the value of agricultural production on the level of the NUTS2 regions in Poland. This value is determined by commodity production rather than the factors of the so-called sustainable agriculture.

scholarly journals Influence of ecophysiological factors on the presence of ochratoxin A in dried vine fruits: A review

Toxigenic Moulds

Grapes derived products, especially dried vine fruits (raisins, sultanas, currants), are very often used in human nutrition, and along with wine, are of significant economic importance in Mediterranean countries, especially in Spain, Greece, Turkey and Italy. The diversity of climate in the areas where grape is grown, indicate that moulds, potential producers of ochratoxin A (OTA), are ubiquitously distributed. Considering this fact, OTA itself is commonly isolated from these products. Great efforts are taken to eliminate ochratoxigenic moulds and preform detoxification of the products, but efficient methods have not been found so far. Because of that, the inhibition of mould growth is of great importance. It is well known that the ecophysiological factors highly influence the presence of toxigenic moulds in different food products, including production of OTA. The aim of this work was therefore to summarize results obtained so far on the presence of OTA in dried vine fruit, and to outline the influence of ecophysiological factors on mould and OTA presence in this commodity.

Measurement Results

The article raises the problem of ensuring metrological traceability of the measurement results of indicators of quality and nutritional value for food products and food raw materials: water (moisture), nitrogen (protein, crude protein), fat, ash and carbohydrates. The problem under consideration can be solved by applying reference materials of food composition, traceable to state primary measurement standards GET 173-2017 and GET 176-2019 and primary reference measurement procedures (PRMP), for attestation of measurement procedures and accuracy checking of measurement results. The article discusses the results of the PRMP development of mass fraction of fat, ash and carbohydrates in food products and food raw materials, as well as mass fraction of crude fat (oil content) in oil crops seeds and products based on them. The paper also presents metrological characteristics of reference materials of composition of dry dairy products, grain-milk dry porridges for nutrition of babies, grain dry porridges for nutrition of babies, egg powder, freeze-dried meat products, animal feed. The results of the work allow for building a chain of metrological traceability from GET 173-2017, GET 176-2019 and PRMP to routine measurement procedures, thereby ensuring the uniformity of measurements of nutritional value of food products.
