For the last 32 years (1988 – 2021), I have been involved in the design, fabrication and evaluation of more than 35 agro-food processing machines (for small and medium scale levels) to enhance food security in Nigeria and Africa for both crop and animal materials. I have also been involved in the development of an aerodynamic model for the design of grain classifier; software for the management of strategic grain reserve in Nigeria and another software for the prediction of EMC, RH and Temperature in silo.
