Rice Milling
Rice is that the seed of the grass species Oryza glaberrima (African rice) or cultivated rice (Asian rice). There are many sorts of rice and culinary preferences tend to vary regionally. Rice, a monocot, is generally grown as an annual plant, although in tropical areas it can survive as a perennial and may produce a ratoon crop for up to 30 years. The traditional method for cultivating rice is flooding the fields while, or after, setting the young seedlings. This simple method requires sound planning and servicing of the water damming and channeling, but reduces the expansion of less robust weed and pest plants that haven't any submerged growth state, and deters vermin. Milled Rice is being produced, in Rice mills, after removing bran, husk and germ. Rice produced after modern rice milling process has different flavor, appearance ( whiten) and extended life. Rice milling process is all about producing edible milled rice after separating the husk (20%), the bran layers (11% ) & clean rice (69%) aka starchy endosperm. This flock helps Rice Technologist device milling machines. A milling machine should ensure consistency in quality of the end product and hence enhance the economic value of the raw material. Energy conservation, proper utilization of human resource and consistently large volumes with least recurring costs is also a need of the hour. The performance of Rice mill in terms of Milled Rice recovery and quality, not only depends on the type or the condition of the equipments but also on the quality of rough rice (paddy) to be converted into milled rice.
