INTRODUCTION
According to Aidoo et al., 2019, cassava, a staple crop for millions
around the globe, is widely recognized for its versatility and
adaptability in various agroecological zones.
Tapioca, cassava chips and pellets, unfermented cassava flour, and starch are
examples of unfermented products. Cassava flour is being used in gluten-free
or gluten-reduced products such as bread and biscuits (Falade & Akingbala,
2010).
• Cassava has a low protein content, with less than 2 grams per 1/2-
cup meal. Cassava leaves, on the other hand, are edible and high in
protein (ARC, 2014).
Literature (Theoretical Framework)
A study of the nutritional contribution of cassava.
Cassava has a lot of potassium and vitamin C. It also includes the majority of B
vitamins (with the exception of B12), vitamin A, magnesium, selenium, calcium, and
iron (Benton, 2022).
• Soybean (SB) production accounts for over 6% of global arable land. Soybean growth
is substantially quicker than that of other main grains or oilseeds (Goldsmith, 2008).
• Humans eat just 2% of soybean protein directly in the form of soy food items such as
tofu, soy burgers, or soy milk substitutes (Goldsmith, 2008).
LITERATURE (THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK)
A study of soya bean production and utilization.
• There is an increasing desire to boost soybean output, either by
increasing planted area or by raising yield (Faustino, 2021).
• The fat content is around 18% of the dry weight, with mostly
polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids and a trace of saturated
fat (Ee, 2009).
• Whole soybeans are very low on the glycemic index (GI), which measures
how meals impact the rise in blood sugar after a meal. Because of their low
GI, soybeans are appropriate for diabetics (Arnarson, 2023).
Literature (Theoretical Framework)
A study of sorghum production and utilization.
• Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Monech) is a staple diet for millions of
people, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia (Khalifa & Eltahir,
2023).
• Sorghum performs well under input limits (e.g., limited water) and has a
high tolerance to harsh climate conditions (e.g., high temperature, drought,
and waterlogging), making it a star crop for addressing hunger in the face of
climate change (Khalifa & Eltahir, 2023).
• Sorghum is commonly used in the following products: stiff porridge, thin
porridge, fried dough, flat bread, githeri (sorghum combined with legumes),
sorghum cake, beverage (sorghum tea), and animal feed (Beinah, et al., 2020).
Literature (Conceptual Review)
Fortification of cassava starch biscuit.
The study's goal was to create a more fortified cassava starch biscuit
by adding a protein-based element to the current "Agbozume
Biscuit." Cassava starch with coconut and soya bean was made
utilizing process flow to provide an enhanced product (Yawo, 2015).
The effects of combining cassava starch and coconut residue on
functional parameters like bulk density, water absorption, and
swelling indices were studied, proximate composition, flour energy
value, and sensory features of tapioca grits meal were investigated
(Adebowale & Ajibode, 2022).
The study's goal was to evaluate the nutritional benefits of modified
cassava flour cookies with a three-leaf powder comprising moringa,
katuk, and kale (Hasrini, et al., 2021).

Statement of the Problem
Cassava-based biscuits, while serving as a dietary staple for many,
suffer from significant nutritional deficiencies, particularly in
essential proteins, vitamins, and minerals (Anyiam et al., 2022)
This poses a challenge to meeting the dietary needs of populations
reliant on cassava. The limited availability of economically viable
protein-rich ingredients exacerbates this issue
To address this nutritional gap, fortification with soya bean and
sorghum is proposed.
However, there is a lack of comprehensive research on the
synergistic effects of combining these ingredients and their impact
on the overall quality of cassava starch biscuits.
Statement of problem Cont’d…
Assess the shelf life and stability of fortified gluten free biscuit.
CONCLUSION
Objective 1:
The anticipated outcome is the identification of precise fortification
ratios of cassava starch, soya bean, and sorghum that optimally
enhance the nutritional content and sensory qualities of biscuit
formulations, providing a foundation for the development of a
nutritionally superior and widely accepted product.
