Course abstract
The aim of the study course "Processing of Agricultural Products" is to educate students and supplement their knowledge about the quality of crop (grains, fruits, vegetables, berries), livestock (dairy and meat) products, their importance in nutrition and processing, to familiarize them with the existing legislation on quality control in the processing of agricultural products, changes in the composition and quality of raw materials during pre-processing and processing, to provide knowledge about crop and livestock processing processes, changes in the composition of raw materials and their importance in the production of food products.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
Having a good knowledge of the basic principles of food production technology and quality requirements for raw materials and finished products – 1st , 2 nd and 3rd test.
Is able to analyze the quality raw materials (milk, fruit, vegetables and grain) to detect quality of various food products – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 laboratory works. Ability to evaluate and analyze the technology of different food products, their nuances and importance for product quality – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 laboratory works.
Course Content(Calendar)
1.Milk and dairy products - 6 h lectures.
2.Milk chemical composition and quality evaluation, 1 Laboratory work: - 5 h.
3.Butter and fermented dairy products composition and quality, 2, 3 Laboratory work: - 5 h.
4.1st Test. Meat and meat products - 6 h lectures.
5.Meat and meats products quality evaluation, 4, 5, 6 Laboratory work: - 10 h.
6.2 nd Test. Grains, fruits and vegetables- 6 h lectures.
7.Bread and fruit and vegetable products analysis, 7, 8, 9 Laboratory work: - 10 h. 8.3 rd Test
Requirements for awarding credit points
•Laboratory works have been attended, developed and defended. •Successfully written theoretical tests.
Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes
The assessment of the study course exam depends on:
•the cumulative assessment of the study course -test,
•laboratory works

A student can get a successful test if at least 50% of the test questions are answered correctly.
The laboratory works are defended by the student orally in response to questions related to the practical and theoretical basis of the work. The exam mark is calculated as the arithmetic mean of both parts of the course, which is calculated as the average arithmetic of the test work in the study course, the lab titles defended by the laboratory.
