Abstract
The diet of many million Nigerian is deficient in protein and calories. A whole soybeans is a solution to this deficiency. The whole soybean contain about 40% protein while that of cowpea is 25%, this goes a long way in showing that soybean is rich in protein. The protein is marked by a good balance of amino acids better than the acids from cereals such as wheat and rice, the balance meets the food and Agricultural organisation (FAO) Standards, so the quality of the protein is high. Soybean products have been produced locally and consumed in the form of soya-oil, soy-milk, soy-meal, soy-ogi etc. the production is done using traditional methods and skill thereby resulting into low quality and sometimes shortages in production, there is need for a modern industrially based production, the proposed soybean processing industry in Jalingo will go a long way in providing employment to the Nigerian Labour market and as well help in conserving and earning foreign exchange for the country.The thesis 'Towards Achieving Hygienic Environment in a Food processing I n d u s t r y ' is to i n v e s t i g a t e possible ways of planning effectively for a sanitary environment in food processing i n d u s t r y though a r c h i t e c t u r a l design and planning considerations, a make a design proposal for soybean processing i n d u s t r y in Jalingo. Optimum Sanitary Conditions in a food plant can only be achieved by adequate consideration of s a n i t a r y and nygiene requirements in the planning of t h e total production operation. In doing this factory design factors were divided i n t o two, that is, planning t h e factory and s t r u c t u r e of the factory itself. The planning involves the raw materials reception, p r e p a r a t i o n land processing of raw materials and finished product s t o r a g e a r e a. In terms of s t r u c t u r e of the factory, the design criteria recommended specifications for floors, walls, and ceilings to Sanitize these elements for easy cleaning and a g a i n s t inflection. Recommendations foi the propel provision of d r a i n a g e service d u c t s , adequate ventilation and lighting was enumerated. Pest proof design was also recommended for the building foundations, floor and window elements.

This way, even if production patterns change, lit will not affect the structure of the factory since sanitary and hygienic requirements would have been considered in the initial design lay out. It is hoped that the thesis will be a source of motivation for entrepreneurs to invest in the local food processing industry and the design proposal, a working model for architects involved in food processing plant design.
