    Abstract Pulses provide economic and health benefits to people in many countries around the world; however, their adoption in western diets, particularly in processed and formulated foods, is limited. One strategy to increase the level of pulses in western diets is to improve pulse accessibility to the ready-to-eat (RTE) food market sector. Pulses have compositional and structural differences when compared to cereals and behave differently during processing. While there have been numerous studies on pulses processed using traditional processing methods, there are limited studies describing processing of pulses as a major ingredient in RTE forms such as flakes. To understand the full processing potential of pulses, systematic studies are required using commercial-scale RTE pilot processing equipment coupled with fundamental property determination techniques to evaluate the effects of processing and pulse material on pulse flake attributes. In-depth studies of pulse properties and their processability are likely to result in the production of high-quality pulse-based foods with superior health benefits. This review explores the current and potential opportunities for processing pulses with a focus on flake products. The roles of pulse type and major structure-forming components such as fiber, carbohydrates, and proteins on end-product quality of processed pulses are discussed.

    Abstract When Andrew Mawson arrived in Bromley-by-Bow in the east end of London, in the 1980s, it was in a state of social, economic and material disrepair. Living there, getting to know the residents and institutions, he soon realized that by unlocking its untapped potential, the community could begin to turn itself around. The result: the Bromley-by-Bow Centre has encouraged literacy, housing, business, health, welfare and enterprise in the area to flourish. Time and again using the same approach, Mawson has succeeded where the government and others have failed. His inspiring and timely book will dem

    Abstract Crop yield dominates rice (Oryza sativa L.) industry research; however, it is grain quality that dictates the value and market acceptance of rice. Key parameters of rice grain quality include physical appearance, amenability to processing and the cooking and sensory properties. In Australia, rice farmers who do not meet defined high‐quality standards receive discounts to their payments. Consequently, even with high yields, poor grain quality can negatively impact grower returns. Despite the financial consequences, the quality of Australian grown rice is highly variable, because unfortunately, the underlying causes are poorly understood. The identification of genetic markers for specific traits largely dominates rice grain quality research, while research regarding the effect of crop management practices on grain quality is relatively sparse and generally lacks an Australian focus. Prior research that has assessed the effect of crop management practices on grain quality tends to focus primarily on milling quality and neglect the physicochemical and cooking properties. This review outlines the current state of knowledge of the role nutritional management, irrigation protocols, planting density, and the interaction with genotype and environment on rice grain quality. The review highlights the uniqueness of Australian management practices and that there is a need for future research to understand the impact of agronomic practices on rice grain quality in Australia. Understanding how each cultivar interacts with agronomic practices can help reduce the variability found within rice crops.

    Abstract BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: There are no published data on the effect of sowing rate on rice grain quality traits of medium‐ and short‐grain cultivars within the Australian environment. Studies that have reported on the impact of sowing rate on grain quality in other rice growing regions have assessed differences between densities below 100 plants/m², which is the minimum target for Australian grown rice. Furthermore, the cultivars evaluated were long‐grain cultivars only. The effect of sowing rate (25–150 kg/ha) on the quality traits of a short (YRK5)‐ and medium (Viand)‐grain rice cultivar was investigated over two seasons. Nitrogen (N) application was included in the study as the appropriate combination of sowing and N rate for maximum yield for both cultivars was unknown. FINDINGS: Sowing and N rate affected the number of grains per panicle and plants established per m² of both cultivars; however, changes in these parameters did not affect crop yield. The number of grains per panicle affected thousand‐grain weight (TGW) and head rice yield (HRY; the percentage of grain that remains whole or at least 75% of the original length after milling), and the response differed between cultivars. Decreasing sowing rate increased the number of grains per panicle, reduced grain length and TGW, and slightly increased HRY in Viand. In YRK5, decreased sowing rate increased TGW and in season two reduced HRY. Protein content was negatively correlated with TGW and positively correlated with HRY. There were no consistent differences in the physicochemical and cooking parameters between densities over both seasons in both cultivars. CONCLUSION: These results indicate that plant density has an indirect effect on milling quality by influencing TGW, which affected total protein content, and thus, HRY and the response differ between cultivars. Furthermore, this study demonstrated that within a population of 18 to 231 plants/m² at establishment, the physicochemical and cooking parameters are not affected by sowing rate. SIGNIFICANCE AND NOVELTY: This study is the first to analyze the grain physicochemical and cooking quality parameters at densities above 100 plants/m² and evaluate the effect of sowing rate on the grain quality of differing grain types within Australia. Comparisons between the low (50–70 kg/ha) and standard sowing rate (130–150 kg/ha) revealed no difference in HRY, and these results are important to farmers and demonstrate a reduction in plant density due to poor establishment, environmental or bird damage does not affect crop yield or grain quality and thus their economic return.

    Abstract BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Water availability is a significant issue in rice‐producing regions that are entirely dependent on irrigation and has led to the development of water‐saving (WS) techniques. Delayed permanent water (DPW) and delayed permanent water with a post‐flower flush (DPW + PFF) are WS methods suitable for temperate areas such as southeastern Australia. Currently, the impact of DPW and DPW + PFF on rice grain quality in southeastern Australia is poorly understood. We compared the effect of DPW and DPW + PFF with conventional irrigation methods on grain development and quality over three years. FINDINGS: Above 60 kg N/ha, head rice yield (HRY; the percentage of grain that remains whole or at least 75% of the original length after milling) was higher in the WS methods compared to plants grown with conventional irrigation methods. The WS methods reduced grain‐filling duration while prolonging the grain‐ripening phase due to a slower infield grain drying, which had a positive effect on HRY. When analyzing cooking parameters, RVA peak viscosity was lower in DPW + PFF compared to permanent flood, which increased RVA setback despite no differences in amylose and total protein content. DPW and DPW + PFF altered the grain protein composition improving HRY and affected the rice flour pasting properties. CONCLUSION: These results indicate that DPW and DPW + PFF do not negatively impact milling quality at N rates above 60 kg/ha. However, changes in protein composition by DPW and DPW + PFF affected the cooking parameters. SIGNIFICANCE AND NOVELTY: These results are important for Australian and global rice producers who need to reduce their water inputs due to drought and receive financial penalties for poor quality grain. Our study is the first to provide a multiyear analysis of the effect of DPW and DPW + PFF on grain quality.

    Abstract BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In temperate rice growing regions, the application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer is often split into two applications to reduce the risk of cold‐induced sterility associated with high N uptake. This strategy involves a basal N application applied pre‐permanent water (PW) and the second application following panicle initiation (PI). Split N application generally increases crop yield, however, data describing the impact on grain quality are relatively sparse. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the split N method on grain quality parameters. We analyzed grain quality under various pre‐PW and PI N rates. FINDINGS: N applied pre‐PW increased head rice yield (HRY; the percentage of grain that remains whole or at least 75% of the original length after milling) in all tested cultivars, however, the effect of splitting the same total N rate into two doses on HRY was cultivar specific. N rate applied pre‐PW also showed a positive and negative relationship with milled grain yellowness (b*) and brightness (L*), respectively. The effect of N on amylose content was cultivar specific. The changes in quality parameters through pre‐PW N application were associated with protein content. However, total protein content did not correlate as strongly with quality parameters in the split treatments compared with the single‐dose treatments. Analysis of protein composition revealed N rate and timing affected protein composition, which had significant impacts on quality parameters, and the effects were cultivar specific. CONCLUSION: These results indicate altering the nutritional management of rice changes the protein composition affecting grain quality parameters. SIGNIFICANCE AND NOVELTY: This study demonstrates the importance of N rate and timing of application in regard to grain quality and the significant role protein composition plays in quality characteristics.

    Abstract Background: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is a time-sensitive emergency procedure for patients who had ischaemic stroke leading to improved health outcomes. Health systems need to ensure that MT is delivered to as many patients as quickly as possible. Using decision modelling, we aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of secondary transfer by helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) compared with ground emergency medical services (GEMS) of rural patients eligible for MT in England.
    Methods: The model consisted of (1) a short-run decision tree with two branches, representing secondary transfer transportation strategies and (2) a long-run Markov model for a theoretical population of rural patients with a confirmed ischaemic stroke. Strategies were compared by lifetime costs: quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), incremental cost per QALY gained and net monetary benefit. Sensitivity and scenario analyses explored uncertainty around parameter values.
    Results: We used the base case of early-presenting (<6 hours to arterial puncture) patient aged 75 years who had stroke to compare HEMS and GEMS. This produced an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of £28 027 when a 60 min reduction in travel time was assumed. Scenario analyses showed the importance of the reduction in travel time and futile transfers in lowering ICERs. For late presenting (>6 hours to arterial puncture), ground transportation is the dominant strategy.
    Conclusion: Our model indicates that using HEMS to transfer patients who had stroke eligible for MT from remote hospitals in England may be cost-effective when: travel time is reduced by at least 60 min compared with GEMS, and a £30 000/QALY threshold is used for decision-making. However, several other logistic considerations may impact on the use of air transportation.
