PROJECT OPPORTUNITIES FOR SETTING UP OF FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES – TECHNOLOGIES FROM CFTRI By P.M.Badgujar Head CFTRI Resource Centre MUMBAI Central Food Technological Research Institute, Mysore – 570 020 Model Food Chain Agricultural Production Processing and Manufacturing Transport & Distribution Food Service and Catering establishment Household Food Preparations Street Food Vending Operations Consumption 2 Advantage India for food processing Abundant and large variety of farm produce due to diversified (26 types of ) climatic conditions Largest Livestock Population 3rd largest food producer in world Largest producer of pulses Leading producer consumer of milk and milk based products in world. 5th in poultry production. Ranks Second in production of wheat, rice & groundnut and fourth in coarse grains Second largest producer of fruits & vegetables. Abundant skilled & unskilled work force at cheaper cost Leading Producer of coconut, cashewnut, ginger, turmeric & black pepper. India confronts a situation in which the surplus and the starvation exist together. Uneven distribution, wastage and spoilage of food mainly contribute to such an anomaly. Prof. M. S. Swaminathan, Chairman, National Commission on Farmers (India) “Having mountains of grains on one side and hungry millions on the other, by 2020, the demographic divide, economic divide and the nutritional divide will widen unless we address them with our existing technologies.” Lack of proper Post-harvest infrastructure & adequate supply chain result in losses of harvested farm produce worth approx. Rs. 30000 crores annually in the country. To improve farmer’s economy & save nation’s wealth, need of the hour is to build sustainable supply chains to link the farmer to the processing & marketing centres and also to develop integrated post-harvest technology & infrastructure. FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRY & SOCIOECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT High Priority Area ( Thrust Area) Labour intensive (Employs 18 – 20% labour force) , offer major employment opportunity Optimal utilization of agro resources Highly decentralized small & Cottage scale industries Dominate, Predominance of primary processing units Enhancement of farmer’s economy, improvement in quality of life of rural Contributes to food security and price stabilization Constraints for food industrial growth • Raw material availability (price, suitability, consistency ) Higher logistics cost Large number of marginal farm holding Huge gap between farmgate price & price to consumer (80%) Varietal suitability for processing & price / yield factor. MOFPI Vision 2015 document (2005) targets Increase level of processing of perishables from 6 to 20% (3 times) Increase value addition from 20% to 35% Increase India’s share in global food market from 1.5% to 3% by 2015 Favourable market drivers for packaged processed foods • 1.1 billion population base with 1.6% annual population growth, who spend over 50% income on food • 350 million urban middle class with its growing purchasing power • Changing food habits (preference to convenience, processed food) • Growing need for convenience foods due to urbanization •Increasing proportion of urban working women, growing organized retails. •Shift on house hold expenditure on Cereals, Pulses, edible oils, salt, sugar, spices declined. Milk & milk products, meat, egg & fish, fruits, vegetables & beverages increased •Increased food safety and hygience consciousness. Growing health & wellness consciousness. •Paradigm shift of joint families to nuclear families . •Emergence of wide range of innovative, safe and reliable quality branded foods. Product modification matching to Consumer demands • Products having lesser synthetic ingredients, preferably no additives Foods & ingredients healthier for him Local flavour & taste at modest price • Existing product modified to address lifestyle disorders like obesity, hypertension, diabetes, heart ailments, etc (Health & wellness based products) Lowsugar, low fat, reduced calorie, low sodium foods Probiotic enriched diary products & baby foods Products having much needed essential nutrients Nutritient & nutraceutical enriched food products Examples Fruit juices/ beverages (Tropicana / Real), Sport drink (Gatorado), Hifibre biscuits, Flaxseed biscuit (Benne Vita) Multigrain biscuits, Low sugar / sugarfree products (confectionary, beverages, ice-cream) Nutrichoice Diabetic Friendly Essentrals XXX Energy drink Cereal bar (Horlick, Nutirbar) Mother Horlicks, Junior Horlicks, Complan Memory, Amaze Brain Foods Ingredients used- Omega-3, Vitamin B1 & B 12, antioxidants, protein ingredients, vital minerals and phytochemicals such as Ginko bilola, brahmi extracts, carotenoids, fibres, probiotics. Causes of food deterioration • decomposition by microorganisms (bacteria, yeast and moulds) • self-decomposition of the food (by enzymatic biochemical reactions and chemical reactions like oxidation) • damage by insects, pests, rodents and other animals, mechanical causes, etc. METHODS OF FOOD PRESERVATION • • • • • • • • • • Reduction of water activity a)Drying and Dehydration b)Preservation by adding sugar c) Preservation by salt High temperature processing Low temperature preservation (refrigerated/cold storage) Freezing preservation Preservation by using chemical preservatives Adjustment of pH/ Acidity Oxygen removal Preservation by hurdle technique Radiation preservation Packaging PROCESSED FOOD PRODUCTS/ TECHNOLOGIES CEREALS : • PRIMARY PROCESSING OF FOOD GRAINS (CLEANING, GRADING, DESTONING, POLISHING, PACKAGING), • DRY MAIZE MILLING (GRITS, GERMS) • WET MAIZE MILLING (STARCH & ITS DERIVATIVES) • GRAIN FLOURS (WHEAT, JOWAR, BAJARA) • MINI RICE MILL • SHELF STABLE OPTIMALLY MILLED BROWN RICE • PARBOILED RICE, QUICK COOKING RICE, CURING OF NEW PADDY • CEREAL FLAKES (RICE, JOWAR, WHEAT,MAIZE,RAGI) • RTE LOW FAT FLAKED SPICY MAIZE/CORN SNACKS • FLAKED JOWAR RTE LOW FAT SWEET & SAVOURY SNACKS • PUFFED CEREALS • MAIZE CHIPS • RAGI DECORTIVATION / ENZYME RICH FLOUR • RAGI BASED MURUKKU / CHKALLI • MULTIGRAIN BASED FORETIFIED SNACK WHEAT MILLING / BAKERY PRODUCTS Biscuit formulations: Salt/Sweet, Nutro, Cocoa, High Protein, Whole wheat flour, Cardamom flavour, Onion flavour, High fiber, Wheat germ, Sunflower grits, Low sodium, Therapeutic, Sugar free Bread: production ( Several varieties - Brown, Plain, Sweet, Milk, Whole Wheat, Fruit, High fiber, Ragi, Bajra, Sugar free ).

INTEGRATED HOT AIR ROASTING MACHINE Automatic Continuous Urd Vada Making Machine SPOUTED BED ROASTER Chaff Separator Hopper Hopper Blower Feeding Blower Conveyor Roasting Chamber Conveyor Receiver Control Panel COMBINED INFRARED AND HOT AIR HEATING SYSTEM Product/Process: Machine for dehydration of fruits And vegetables. Process/Technology: The conventional drying systems are either batch type or energy intensive systems. The combined infrared and hot air heating system utilizes the synergistic effect of electromagnetic radiation and hot air for the dehydration of vegetables. The conveyorized system could be used for continuous operation. The versatile system could be used for the other thermal processes such as blanching and roasting with suitable minor modifications in the system. The prototype has a capacity of 15 kg/h of raw vegetables. Approximate price per machine: Rs. 15 lakh (400 kg/h of raw material) CIRCULAR LEMON CUTTING MACHINE Product/Process: Machine for cutting of lemons in to four pieces. Process/Technology: Washed lemons are transferred into the tray of the lemon cutting machine. The lemons flow into the pockets of the centralizing disc due to the gradient of the inlet chute. The centralizing disc carry/move the lemon against the cutter. The whole lemon is cut into four pieces when the centralizing disc carrying the whole lemon moves against the cutter. The lemons cut to four pieces are dropped on to the outlet chute, when the centralizing disc moves away from the cutter. The outlet chute will discharge the cut lemon into the tray/vessel. A geared motor drives the centralizing disc. Approximate price per machine: Rs 25,000/- Other process control tools Pest control programme is one of the important activities in the entire production and process as pests pose a threat to the entire system, right from incoming raw material to storage of finished goods. Installation of fire-control and alarm systems & periodic inspection and maintenance thereof.
