title: Studies on dhal recovery from pre-treated pigeon pea ( Cajanus cajan L .) cultivars.
abstract: Dhal recovery from three popular varieties of North Karnataka was studied using CFTRI mini dhal mill with five different treatments at three different levels. It was observed that Gulyal variety treated with mustard oil recorded maximum hulling efficiency (79.4%) and finished product (68.8%) when compared to a Maruti and Asha variety. However, acetic acid treatment recorded higher hulling efficiency (76.5%) for Maruti followed by Asha (56.9%). The plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) treatment yielded minimum hulling efficiency and finished product recovery for all the varieties.
