Nigeria imports over N30 billion worth of castor oil every year. NARICT is filling a gap, by producing a machine that will be used in processing the castor seed produced in the country.
The machine is a milling-shaft type incorporating winnowing unit. It is self-feeding and operates by centrifugal impact and friction. It has the capacity of shelling 2.16 tons of castor seed (Ricinus Communis) within 8 hours of work. It has been developed to produce exportable products by incorporating a separation unit. This is yet another NARICT's product that support the Federal Government's import substitution policy. Its massive cultivation and processing will provide a much sought-atter raw materials for numerous industries that are import dependent on castor oil and its downstream products.
