Introduction. Pumpkin seed (Cucurbita pepo L.) is high in oil, protein, 

and total unsaturated fatty acids (TUFA) and provides an important source of nutrition and income globally. 

Use of pumpkin seed in the snacking and vegetable oil industry in the US is expected to rise as the market for healthy foods increases.

A pumpkin seed, also known in North America as a pepita, is the edible seed of a pumpkin or certain other cultivars of squash. 

The seeds are typically flat and asymmetrically oval, have a white outer husk, and are light green in color after the husk is removed.
