DESCRIPTION:Bolstering Innovation in Value-added Processing of Pulses\n\nSi
 gnificant progress has been made in the last few decades to increase pulse
  production and the global pulse supply. Concurrently\, new knowledge has 
 been generated that has broadened our understanding of the characteristics
  of pulses and pulse ingredients for food applications. Expanding pulse ut
 ilization in value-added product development to meet current and future de
 mands will require concerted research efforts to improve our understanding
  of consumer behaviour as well as greater knowledge on how production and 
 processing practices affect the functionality\, flavour\, health and nutri
 tional characteristics of pulses. A 4-tiered approach is proposed: a) cont
 inue to expand production and global supply to address known needs and new
  and emerging markets using existing knowledge of the characteristics of p
 ulses and pulse ingredients in traditional applications\; b) identify exis
 ting infrastructure capacity and processing streams that can be easily rep
 urposed or reconfigured to process pulses for applications that are famili
 ar to consumers\, for example  where pulses can be easily used to replace 
 or complement traditional ingredients\; c) develop new technologies\, proc
 esses and ingredients to expand pulse product offerings for diversified ap
 plications (e.g.\, as food and feed)\; and d) generate incremental knowled
 ge on the nutritional\, health\, functional and ecological attributes of p
 ulse products to incent consumer interest\, expand markets and increase pr
 oduct uptake. Using pulse proteins as an example\, this presentation will 
 highlight how existing science could be harnessed into business solutions 
 to address emerging opportunities for the pulse sector.\n\nGuest Speaker:
