VALORES NUTRICIONALES DE FRUTOS DE VINAL (Prosopis ruscifolia): CONSUMO HUMANO Y ANIMAL NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF VINAL (Prosopis ruscifolia): PODS INTENDED FOR FOOD AND FEED VALORES NUTRICIONAIS DE FRUTOS DE VINAL (Prosopis ruscifolia): CONSUMO HUMANO E ANIMAL

Abstract: Integrally use of native leguminous in the Chaco Region (Argentine) could be an important tool to partially solve underfeeding and environmental problems. The vinal (Prosopis ruscifolia), a very abundant species, was incorporated to an agroforestry model because of its nutritious fruits for both humans and livestock. Whole fruits and fractions (seed, pulp-flour-and residue) were analyzed in samples according to their basic components, fatty acids and mineral. The whole fruits showed a high nutrient level; the … Show more

“…These species are important both economically and ecologically. For example, the fruits and seeds of P. ruscifolia are reported to be good sources of nutrition for humans and animals [4], and the flowers of P. rubriflora , which are present throughout the year, provide important food resources, such as pollen and nectar, for the local fauna [5]. P. rubriflora has a narrow distribution range and is limited to Paraguay and Brazil, but P. ruscifolia is also found in Argentina and Bolivia [6,7].…”

“…Seu uso para fins tecnológicos, construção e combustível, que implica na retirada da planta, é bastante empregado por populações chaquenhas na América do Sul (Ríos et al 2008). Além do valor de uso alimentício estimado, essa espécie tem também rico valor nutricional, principalmente na farinha onde há bom nível de proteínas (105 ± 5,1 g/kg), expressivo valor de fibras e alto valor de carboidratos (778,4 ± 13,4 g/kg) (Freyre et al 2003). A receita da "chicha", bebida alcoólica preparada com frutos de Prosopis spp., comum entre as populações chaquenhas na Argentina (Cornelli et al 1996), difere da preparada com frutos de Acrocomia spp.…”

“…El reconocimiento de la Argentina como centro de diversidad de este género revela un amplio uso en alimentación humana, animal y como combustible (Felker & Bandurski, 1979). Se lo ha utilizado como alimento, combustible (leña y carbón), obtención de madera para construcción y muebles, como forraje, para la obtención de fármacos, colorantes, gomas y en prácticas de conservación del suelo Meglioli et al, 2008;López et al, 2006;Giménez & Moglia, 2003;Freyre et al, 2003;Fagg & Steward, 1994;Castro, 1994;Figueiredo, 1990).…”
