Abstract:

A study was carried out to evaluate the physio-chemical properties of raw and boiled sorghum during storage. Sorghum is the fifth most important cereal in the world after wheat, rice, maize and barley. It is found in arid and semi-arid regions of the world due to its drought tolerant nature. The nutritional value of sorghum is similar to that of maize and hence it is gaining importance as fodder for cattle. The physicochemical properties of the raw and boiled sorghum were studied using standard methods. The results (average values of the three measurements) were mentioned in the tabulated form. The determined physical and engineering properties were used in designing the hopper of the machine.


Keywords: Sorghum, Physical properties, Boiled grains, Cereal and Moisture content
