Dehulling improves markedly the feed value of oat (Avena sativa L.), but good storability of groat mass is required when large quantities of oat are dehulled at any one time. A laboratory model of an impact oat dehuller, similar to a commercial device, was used to study the effects of rotation speed and grain moisture content on groat breakage and the storage life of oat groats. Grain of oat cultivar Salo [from official variety trials, MTT Agrifood Research Finland, Jokioinen (60°49'N), 1996–2000] was dehulled with an impact oat dehuller using rotation speeds of 200 to 500 r min-1 at 50 r min-1 intervals. In an additional experiment, grains were moistened resulting in moisture content ranging from 10% to 18%. Proportion of broken groats and size... |

High hull content of oat (Avena sativa L.) limits its use as on-farm feed. Dehulling, used in the oat processing industry, can be performed on-farm, to increase nutritive value and energy content. A laboratory model of an impact oat dehuller, similar to a commercial device, was used to study the effects of rotation speed, grain characteristics and moisture content on hullability and groat energy content. Grain of oat cultivar Salo [from official variety trials, MTT Agrifood Research Finland, Jokioinen (60°49'N), 1996–2000] was assessed for quality prior to dehulling. Impact dehulling rotation speed ranged from 200 to 500 r min-1 at 50 r min-1 intervals, with moisture content of grains ranging from 10% up to 18%. Dehulling improved oat energy content... |

In a three-year Research program of organic food and farming in Finland there are six projects under theme plant production and soil science. The projects focus on potato and red clover cultivation, waste composts and meat-bone meal as organic fertilizer and on-farm soil quality testing. Preliminary results are now available. |
