Greetings to everyone that has contributed thus far.

My little sumission bother around the need for improved awareness on neglected and underutilised species (NUS), especially in developing countries. The work on one of the NUS that i had carried out on Bambara groundnut supported earlier claims by scientists that NUS has immense nutrition potentials. Thus, i believe that more funding, support should be geared into NUS research, so as to provide enough nutrients diversity.
