I am especially grateful to my Supervisor (Name), the Head of Department (Name), and the Lecturers in the Department of Food Science and Technology (FT) for their invaluable guidance and support. I also acknowledge the contributions of authors and scholars whose works on (Seminar) Food Storage, Preparation and Procurement provided essential insights. Special thanks go to my study area (and any funding organizations, if applicable) for their financial assistance. I am equally thankful to stakeholders, including mentors, teachers, and colleagues, for their encouragement and support. Finally, I deeply appreciate my family and friends for their patience and unwavering support throughout this journey. Your contributions have been instrumental in making this research a reality.
1.1 Introduction
Food procurement is a complex system with a large number of participants, and it is regulated by a number of laws and regulations on different sectors, and there is involved a number of controlling bodies. Food science is the scientific study of food from the period of harvesting, processing, storage and packaging. Human nutrition now is concerned with the utilization of this food in the human system. Because both cases are referring to food, it shows that both terms are inter-related. Actually, food science plays significant roles in human nutrition as it broadens our horizon on the foods we consume. Food science in Human Nutrition is the basic science and applied science of human food; its scope starts at overlap with agricultural science and nutritional science and leads through the scientific aspects of food safety and food processing, informing the development of food technology. Human nutrition deals with the provision of essential nutrients in food that is necessary to support human life and good health (Ventes, 2020).
