Short Profile

Prof. O.P. Sobukola (Professor, Food Processing and Preservation) graduated from the University of Agriculture, (now Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, FUNAAB), Nigeria as the overall best graduating student with four distinct academic awards (1998/1999 session). He completed his Masters’ (2003) and PhD (2007) degrees in Food Processing and Storage Technology from the same University. Prof. Sobukola is an IFS grantee and had his postdoctoral training at the Department of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Santiago, Chile, where he worked in the area of Food Process design in relation to development and microstructural analysis of vacuum and atmospherically fried fabricated matrices. He has also received international training at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark on innovative University Teaching and Learning; Wageningen University of Agriculture and Research (WUR) on learning, action research and outreach-making higher education boost Food security; Food safety and hygiene for postharvest handling of fresh fruits and vegetables, among others. He was also a research team member in many internationally funded research projects such as GRATITUDE, CassavaGmarkets, UDESWA (Upscaling the Nigerian Flash Drying Experience for Sustainable Regional Trade and Income generation in West Africa), Postharvest Loss Alliance for Nutrition (Landscape analysis and nutrient retention study), Scoping study on Nigerian Agricultural Education (FUNAAB-iCRA), among others. Prof. Sobukola is a visiting Professor at the Department of Food Science and Technology, Faculty of Food Science and Human Nutrition, Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Lilongwe, Malawi.

University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, PhD in Food Processing and Storage Technology November 2007

University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria, MSc in Food Processing and Storage Technology November 2003 and BSc (Hons) in Food Science and Technology January 2000

The focus of my research is the application of innovative engineering principles in the development of processes and systems that add value to agricultural products (plants and animals) and ensure their safety across the food supply chain. Researches are conducted in the following specific areas:
1. Value addition to agricultural produce through technological processes such as extrusion processing, heat and mass transfer applications (frying, drying and freezing)
2. Application of innovative microstructural techniques in evaluating quality and safety of structured and unstructured food materials.
3. Development of appropriate and cost-effective technologies for reducing post-harvest losses in developing countries.
