Talk to us

A rice mill works on a thin margin per quintal.
The result turns on how much head rice each quintal of paddy gives, and on what the bran, brokens and husk fetch.

We measure head rice, brokens, bran and husk per quintal of paddy, by variety and lot.
We reconcile paddy issued with rice and by-products delivered.
We credit by-product income to the cost of rice, and value husk used as boiler fuel at what it would sell for.
We cost power, parboiling fuel, labour and bags per quintal.
We compare the margin per quintal from hulling for others with milling on your own account.
We plan paddy stock, bank limits and cash month by month for the season.
