Grain Milling (Botswana) Describes a project to develop and manufacture small village-style decorticators to test the performance and economic feasibility of small sorghym-milling systems in Botswana. The project also examined the acceptance of these mills by the village communities and their influence upon sorghum demand and use. The project began in June 1978 and was completed in August 1980. |

Skcs Uniformity Measures Relating to the Laboratory and Commercial Milling of Wheat (Research Project Abstract) Research to determine the impact of HRW kernel size variability on laboratory and commercial mill performance. Develop a single kernel hardness reference method that can also serve as a reference method for the SKCS 4100. This will answer questions regarding hardness measurements of hard and soft white wheat, define the measurement error attributed to the SKCS 4100 when measuring hardness, and improve the SKCS calibrations. Research began September 29, 2003; will end Sept. 28, 2008. |
