Abstract
RAMIREZ-JARAMILLO, Genovevo; BETANCUR-ANCONA, David A; CHEL-GUERRERO, Luis A and CASTELLANOS-RUELAS, Arturo F. From the research of phyto-bioactive molecules to industrial production, the missing link is the productive potential. JONNPR [online]. 2022, vol.7, n.4, pp.356-365. Epub Sep 25, 2023. ISSN 2529-850X. https://dx.doi.org/10.19230/jonnpr.4932.
Objective:
Estimate the agronomic area susceptible to the cultivation of V. unguiculata in the Mexican territory to support the establishment of a future agroindustry oriented towards obtaining protein hydrolysates with bioactivity obtained from V. unguiculata.
Methods:
For the determination of areas with agroclimatic aptitude, three fundamental aspects were considered, which are the following: determination of the agroecological requirements; obtaining spatial information and finally data processing. For the latter, the free license QGIS 3.6.0 Noosa software was used.
Results-Discussion:
Based on what was found with the data processing, it is clear that most areas of the country have optimal soil conditions, altitudes and hours of light per year; but this is not the case of the average annual temperature and the average annual rainfall required to cultivate Vigna; this areas are localized in the tropical and subtropical areas of the country.
Conclusions:
More than thirteen million hectares susceptible to being cultivated with V. unguiculata where detected in Mexico. Cultivation in a fraction of this enormous extension could provide raw material to obtain protein hydrolysates with bioactivity required for a future industrial activity.
