DAL MILLING VENTURE FOR RURAL SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 13
Abstract
The study revealed that the dal mill owners are themselves working as the manager as well as the decision maker of processing units. The per dal mill total capital investment cost was Rs. 43,11,723.60, Rs. 76,55,497.50 and Rs. 1,19,16,452, respectively for the small, medium and large sized dal mills. The main product (whole dal) contributed about 94 per cent of the total returns and the remaining 6.76 per cent contribution was made by the value of total by-products. The per dal mill net returns over total variable cost was estimated to Rs. 77,27,688.52 and that over total cost came to Rs. 63,89,614.31 during the year. Whereas, the per quintal net returns over total variable cost worked out to Rs. 415.62 and that over total cost to Rs. 343.66. The BCR in pulse processing worked out to 1.09. The BEP of pulse was 26.29, 13.48 and 10.28 per cent of the actual quantity processed by these mills, respectively. The efforts should, be made to utilize the available capacity of the dal mills. In this context, it is suggested that the millers should not only carried out the activity of procuring pulse, processing it and selling the finished products in the market but should perform the job of customer’s processing by extending pulse processing services to the people as and when available.
