The drying characteristics of green peas during combined hot air-infrared drying were examined. The experiments were carried out for combination of four infrared power intensities (0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 W.cm-2) and three levels of drying air flow rate (0.5, 1 and 1.5 m.s-1) and three levels of drying air temperatures (30, 40 and 50° C). Among several models which were fitted to the experimental data, the Three Term model was introduced to be the most appropriate model to predict moisture ratio as a function of air flow rate, drying air temperature and infrared power density. The statistics indexes of 99.7%, 0.000121, 0.0000 and 0.000121 for R2, X2, MBE and RMSE were obtained for the Three Term model, respectively. Application of infrared radiation in... |

During the year 2007-08, the area under green peas in Punjab was 18.45 thousand hectares with a production of 1.11 lakh tonnes. The total consumption at the farm level being just 2.54 per cent, the marketed surplus was 97.46 per cent. The maximum quantity of green peas was sold by the growers in the wholesale market (about 89%) and the rest was sold at the farm, in the village and in Apni Mandi. The marketing of green peas has been studied by three supply chains, viz. I: Producer → wholesaler (through commission agent) → retailer → consumer; II: Producer → retailer (through commission agent) → consumer; III: Producer → consumer. The net price received by the producer was 67 per cent, 69 per cent and 94 per cent in supply chains I, II and III respectively... |
