Abstract

Amaranths are annual plants in the Amaranthaceae family and categorized as cereal crops, vegetable crops, ornamental plants, forage crops or weed plants. Edible amaranth species have been proposed as a low-cost cops that might be cultivated as alternative plants due to its especially easy growing and harvesting properties. Both vegetable and grain amaranth species are rich in proteins which have a high biological value. Grain, moreover, amaranth is high in lysine and ber, and low in saturated fats while gluten-free. Vegetable amaranth is mostly consumed as salads or side dishes whereas grain amaranth are used as our-based products. The production of amaranth species have been expanded to 4 major continents including America, Europa, Africa and Asia. China is the leading country in vegetable amaranth production while USA in grain amaranth production.

Özet

Amarant, Amaranthaceae familyasında yer alan tek yıllık bitkiler topluluğu olup tahıl, sebze, süs bitkisi, yem bitkisi veya yabancı ot olarak sını andırılmaktadır. Yenilebilir amarant türleri, kolay bir şekilde yetiştirilip hasat edilebilmesinden dolayı ucuz yolla tarımı yapılabilecek alternatif bir bitki grubu olarak önerilmektedir. Hem sebze hem de tahıl amarant türleri biyolojik değeri yüksek olan proteinler bakımından zengindir. Tahıl amarant ilave olarak yüksek miktarda lisin ve lif, düşük miktarda doymuş yağ taşımakla beraber gluten içermemektedir. Sebze amarant genellikle salata ve garnitür olarak tüketilirken tahıl amarant daha çok undan yapılan ürünlerde kullanılmaktadır. Amarant yetiştiriciliği 4 ana kıtaya, yani Amerika, Avrupa, Afrika ve Asya’ya yayılmıştır. Sebze amarant üretiminde Çin ilk sırada yer alırken, tahıl amarant üretiminde ABD başı çekmektedir.
