OMORO – Kweyo Growers’ Cooperative Society wants to acquire a grain sorter that can clean fusarium-damaged grains from bulk stocks.
A grain or color sorter is a machine that helps in cleaning dirty, harvested grains by removing grits, grains of other colors, and separates desired and non-desired seeds, as well as guaranteeing weed-free seeds for packing. It is also capable of removing discolored grains and sorting different species of grains.
The cooperative plans to use the grain sorter to add value to grains that have been degraded due to fusarium, inadvertent assortment, and other factors.
Located in Ongako Sub County in Omoro district, the cooperative which has 432 members, has a high-tech peanut butter processor.
