I undertook this Agro-Industrial Attachment Programme and

completed report at Ashok Dal mill (Dal Mill) under the guidance of
owner Shri Ramesh Khandare. I am grateful to the industry for their
patience and assistance during my programme. It was a good learning
for me by being part of them as it helps to gain knowledge about the
processing involved in agriculture produces after harvesting and the
challenges involved in it. It not only helped me to understand the
processes but also the marketing and economics involved in it.
 Introduction

During the Seventh semester's RAWE programme, we have to enroll

into the AIA Programme. Hence, through this, I got an opportunity to
experience and study the Agro-Businesses and for that I selected one
of my nearby Tur dal mill processing unit. Pulses refer to the dried,
edible seeds of leguminous crops. Pulses play a fundamental role as
a low-fat, high fibre source of protein and an essential component of
traditional food baskets. These are most essential element for a well-
balanced diet and major source of protein to vegetarian people of
India. There are several varieties of pulses in India. Most of them are
produced and consumed locally. Chickpeas (Chana), pigeon peas
(Arhar / Toor Dal), Urad (Urad Dal), Mung (Moong) and red lentils
(Masoor) are the top five pulses grown in India. These pulses account
for over 80 per cent of the total production in the country. The
conversion of pulses seed into Dal is done through the process of
milling. At this Industry, I got an opportunity to learn the exact
processing and economics of Dall mill. Also, I got to see the immense
employment opportunities in this sector.
 General details of Industry:

Name: Ashok Dal Mill

Address: Chikhli Road Malvihir Buldhana (MS)
Owner: Ramesh Khandare.
Type: Private Dal Mill

Objectives and Mandates of the Industry:

To provide good quality of Toor dal.

To provide dal at reasonable prices.
To generate employment opportunities to non-farming rural
people.
To establish themselves as leading Toor dal provider.
Production of Dal from pulses which should be free of husks,
stones and other foreign material.
Improve milling efficiency and minimization of losses using
improved Dal mills.
 Various Machineries at the Industry:

1. Precleaners
2. Dehuskers
3. Graders.
4. Bucket elevators
5. Aspirators and Blowers
6. Conditioning and dehusking.
7. Splitting
8. Sortex
9. Polishing and bagging
10. Heaters/ dryers.
 Human resources at the industry:

b) Female: 0

Mistri 2 350/day

Hamal 5 Varies

Manufacturing Process with Flow Chart:

The first step in dal milling is pre-cleaning i.e., removing of rocks, dust,
etc. with the help of pre-cleaner machine. The cleaned dal comes up
in tank for drying through cup lines. The dried dal is then coated with
water and oil for further processing. Then the splitting of dal takes
place for dividing dal into two parts. Dehusking process takes place in
dehushker for removing the husk from dal. In one pass or single
operation, about 50% of pulses are de-husked. The husk is converted
into animal feed called as chunni. Then grading of dal takes place in
sortex machine, dal id divided and separated into 3 to 4 qualities. Once
again, the dal is heated and then water polishing of dal is done for
giving shine. Lastly the dal is ready for packaging.

Future Programmes of the Industry:

To expand their business to out of Maharashtra.

To process other pulses as well such as chickpea, gram.
Selling more husks to farmer for making organic compost or as
poultry feed.
To tie up with other industries which requires tur dal as raw
material for making other products.
 Following are the activities we got involved:

Cleaning and grading

Pitting
Water and Oil Mixing
Seiving
Dehusking
. Husk Aspiration
Packaging

Conclusion

The work experience and the information I encountered during AIA

Programme allowed me to gain complete knowledge of the industry
and their Environment. I got to see the exact working and understood
the necessary skills required for it. It helps me to view Agro-businesses
as growing sector and the immense employment opportunities it has.
I think I still need more exposure to study and learn Agro-Businesses.
However, the overall experience was positive, and everything I
learned will be useful in my future career.
