This
research was based on efficiency of plot size millet thresher over traditional
method of threshing Kutki millet. Kutki millet (little millet) is one of the
most important small millet crop grown in rainfed area of Madhya Pradesh India.
Traditionally in tribal and hilly area, threshing of Kutki millet crops is done
by beating sticks and tractor bare operation which is more time consuming,
energy intensive, labour intensive and uneconomical. The plot size millet
thresher can reduce the drudgery of farmers, labours improve the quality of
product, with existing socio economic condition of millet growing tribal
farmers. Thus, the plot size millet thresher was found best with 99.6%
threshing efficiency, 98.9% cleaning efficiency, 20.2 kg/h output capacity, 0.45%
un-threshed grain percentage and 0% broken grain.
