Kulwa Nekwehluleka Kwavitamini A
Kwehluleka kwa Vitamin A (VAD) yinkinga yemphilo yawonkhe muntfu la Ningizimu Afrika. Lucwalingo lolwenteke muva lukhomba kutsi 43.6% wemnyaka munye kuya kulosihlanu webantfwana budzala bese kuba ngu 27% webesifazane labasesigabeni sekubeleka bantfwana labasokola ku VAD.Vitamin A umcoka kwentela kubona/kubuka kanye nekuvuma kwemasotja emtimba (kulwa nalesifo). Kwehluleka kwa vitamin A ngusonasizatfu sekubabete indlela yekutsatsa kudla lokulungele lovitamin A.
linani leprovitamin A lifika kutibhidvo letifana nabhatata lonesikhumba lesiluphuti, yindlela lendze leyaphasiswa Bacwalingi Betelitiko Lekulima (ARC) kwentela kunciphisa lokwehluleka. Bhatata-loluphuti ngesikhumba ukudla lokusetjentiswako esikolweni.
Bhatata Loluphuti Ngesikhumba - Njengekudla Phindze lolula Kuwulima
Bhatata yindlela lekahle yemandla, utsi asagcina linani lemavitamin C phindze abutsise bovitamin B kanye nemamineral lafana ne magnesium, zinc kanye ne iron ekudleni kwemuntfu. Kupha linani lenala la provitamin A ngendlela ye beta-carotene. Incumbi yalama beta-carotene agcinekile ngesikhatsi kubiliswa futsi nenshisekelo yabhatata loluphuti ngesikhumba kwentela kuphucula/kukhuphula lizinga avitamin A selitfoliwe kutsi liliciniso baCwalingi Betelitiko Letemphilo. Lenanhlanyelo isetjentiswe ngetikali letinkhulu ta provitamin A bangeneli base Mozambique nase Uganda ngemphumelelo lenhle.Le ARC ikhulise tinhlobonhlobo talesikhumba lesiluphuti ngekunambitsa lokumnandzi, emadvwala lasetulu kanye neluvelo lolomile lolutfwele emanani lasetulu ebeta-carotene. Lining le BOPHELO litfwele tinkhulungwane letisikhombisa nemakhulu lasikhombisa epg/likhulu lema g etimphandze letibilisiwe (noma emakhulu lasitfupha nemashumi lamane epg/likhulu lema g) indlela yelifutsa lefanana ne (RAE). Incenye yelikhulu lema g lebilisiwe yalobhatata loluphuti ngesikhumba lelipha tindlela tekudla tetinhlobo letinengi temacembu lasakhulile.
Kulungiselelwa Kukhicita
Lenhlanyelo iyincelencele kusitfwatfwa, phindze iphazamisa sikhatsi sekuyihlanyela:Indzawo
Ilula kusitfwatfwa lesiphansi
Sitfwatfwa lesinemandla
Lapho kute khona sitfwatfwa
Kuna kwemvula ebusika
Tinyanga Tekuhlanyela
Emkhatsini weMphala kuya kuNgongoni
Emkhatsini weLweti kuya ekucaleni kweNgongoni
Ngenyanga yeNgci kuya kuye Ndlovu
Ngenyanga yeLweti kuya kuyeNgongoni
Balimi bangasebentisa kuhlanyela lokumangalisako kwentela kwelula bukhona. Ngesikhatsi semnyaka ngekuhlanyela njalo ngenyanga kusuka ngenyanga yeMphala kuya kunyenga Bhimbidvwane kwentela kutsi bakhone kuvuna kusuka ngenyanga yeNdlovana kuze kube yinyanga yeNgci emnyakeni lolandzelako. Bobhatata batfolwa ngendlela yekujutjwa; emasentimitha lamashumi lamabili kuya kumashumi lamatsatfu ngebudze, bahlanyelwe ngetigadla letintsatfu kuya kuletine ngaphansi kwemhlaba.
Sikhala emkhatsini wemalayini ungaba ngu 0,75 kuya kulimitha linye nelilayini lelisekhatsi lelisikhala lesimashumi lamabili nesihlanu kuya kumashumi lamatsatfu emasentimitha. Kuhlanyela emagcumeni kuyavunywa ngoba kutokhulisa emadvwala ngekunciphisa umonakalo kulobhatata ngesikhatsi sekuvuna. Vuna bhatata emuva kwetinyanga letine nehhafu (etindzaweni letifutfumele) kuya kuletisihlanu tinyanga (etindzaweni letisemkhatsini) emuva kwekutjala noma kuhlanyela. Tinhlobonhlobo temikhicito tingentiwa njengema chips, ijusi, emafethi lanongotelako.
Bukhona Betintfo Tekuhlanyela
Lokujutjiwe kusakatiwe Kunhlangano Yebalimi beMavini aBhatata – Sweet Potato Vine Growers Association (SPVGA) labakhula etikhwameni (ticelo letinkhulu) noma tincumbi (ticelo letincane). Labe ARC banika labakhulisa emavini kujutjwa kwemagciwane-ngendlela letfoliwe, kuciniseka kutsi igadziwe lenhlanyelo kuyivikela kumagciwane phindze kunaka tilokatane kwentela kusakata buhle lobungubo, kujuba lokuphilile kwentela kukhicita. Lalabalima emavini baphocelelekile kutsi balalele noma bavumelane ngekukhulisa lizinga.Letindlwanyana temavini tihlolwa futsi tiphasiswa ngulabamelele iARC ngaphambi kujuba kusakatwe. Linani lelikhulu lekujuba letinhlobonhlobo letinsha te ARC lingentiwa kusuka ngenyanga yeNgci kuze kube yinyanga yaMabasa.Translated by Phindile Malotana
