Hand operated seating type maize sheller gives less output hardly 20-25 kg/hr, seating type rotary maize sheller gives 35-45 kg/hr and the standing type maize sheller gives 50-60 kg/hr output.The machine was developed with locally available material with overall dimensions of 1270 X 760 X 1150 mm. The four shelling units were provided for shelling of maize cobs and operated with the chain and sprocket of bicycle. The average moisture content of the kernels was 20%. The average shelling rate of operating pairs working in morning session and afternoon session was 88.31 kg/hr and 87.37 kg/hr...

Soya milk is high in protein, low in fat and carbohydrate and contains no cholesterol. Soymilk is best for people suffering from diabetes and lactose-intolerance.

The field experiment framed in randomized block designed having six treatments with four replications was conducted on cabbage at research farm of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering, Dr. PDKV, Akola for its response to different irrigation/mulch treatments on water saving during November 2013 to February 2014. Seasonal water requirement of cabbage was found to be highest (327.4 mm) under irrigation scheduling at 100% ETc (T4, T5, and T6). It was found to be lowest (252.2 mm) under irrigation scheduling at 50% moisture depletion of available water capacity under silver polyethylene mulch with...
