Growing and processing moringa leaves

Abstract

This handbook is destined to improve moringa leaf farming and processing in order to meet top sanitary and nutritional standards. For the first time, the techniques of moringa production, perfected by African farmers, have been compiled, verified and presented in an easy-to-use, precise manner. The steps in the leaf-processing phase have been tested and improved based on information gathered from both Africa and Asia. Finally, the analysis of reliable scientific reports has helped establish average nutrient values of fresh or powdered moringa leaves.
