No more finger-tip shelling!
Writing from the Department of Agricultural Engineering at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, Ghana, Emmanuel Y H Bobobee (email: ebobobee@yahoo.com; fax: +221 51 34434) responds to our call in Spore 91 ( No more pounding ) for information about post-harvest food processing equipment. 'I am happy to introduce to you a similar piece of equipment for cracking groundnut and other pulses developed by myself through student projects. The traditional methods of shelling dry pods (finger-tip pressure, or beating with stones) is tedious and expensive. It is to solve this problem that this manually operated or motorised cracker-winnower had been developed. I shall be willing to answer any further enquiries.'
