Sprouts and Wheatgrass Production and Marketing (Summary)
Sprouted
vegetable seeds and cereal grains are increasing in popularity
in restaurants and groceries. Two production methods are used,
and each type of seed has optimal growth requirements. Food safety
has become an important issue because of several cases of bacterial
contamination in recent years. Even as the industry addresses
these challenges, research has shown anti-cancer activity in
some types of sprouts. Sources of seeds and of specific production
information are included in this publication. Electronic and
other resources are also listed.
