Deep Processing and Comprehensive Utilization of Agricultural Products

Dear Colleagues,

There are many types of agricultural resources all over the world, including grain and oil, fruits and vegetables, livestock and poultry, aquatic products, plants with some functional ingredients, edible fungi, and so on. They are the main raw materials of the food industry. With the progress of science and technology, deep processing technology, equipment, and other aspects of agricultural products have also seen great development. In addition, the comprehensive utilization of by-products in the processing of agricultural products is also a field that the food industry needs to focus on, such as the extraction of polysaccharides /polyphenols /dietary fibers from fruit peels, using wheat bran in some bakery products, using the shells of shrimp and crab for animal feed, and so on. Through deep processing, by-product wastes can be turned into treasures. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to collect basic research and applied research related to technology, processing, equipment, product development, and high-value utilization of by-products in the field of agricultural product processing.
