This Annex is part of a larger project “Scaling Up Small Millet Post-Harvest and Nutritious Food Products.” Details of the development of new hullers are given in this report. Trials were conducted on several varieties of millets. More trials with different specific gravity separators are necessary, so that suitable models can be recommended to small millet processors. Prototypes and methods of grain processing are described and discussed, illustrated with clear photographs. Machine performance and efficiencies are presented, as well as improved storage innovations.application/pdfenMILLETFOOD PROCESSINGGRAIN PROCESSINGAGRICULTURAL EQUIPMENTAGRICULTURAL INNOVATIONSAGRICULTURAL EXTENSIONPOSTHARVEST TECHNOLOGYFOOD STORAGEFOOD TECHNOLOGYAGRICULTURAL MACHINERYTAMIL NADUINDIASOUTH ASIAAnnex 2.12 : Research initiatives for addressing the technology gaps in primary processing of small milletsIDRC-Related Report
