About the Webinar

One roadblock to the increased production of the โ€œancientโ€ grains einkorn, emmer, and spelt is the need for dehulling capacity, since these grains do not thresh free of the hull in the combine. This webinar will provide an overview of the methods used to dehull grain and the components needed in a dehulling system. Onefocus will be on the current dehulling options for both larger-scale and small-scale growers, includingcusto m dehulling, new and used dehullers, modification of milling/cleaning equipment to dehull, and building oneโ€™s own dehuller. The webinar will also focus on the economics of dehulling, including consideration of ancient grain yield, dehulling efficiency and costs, and prices for hulled and dehulled grain.
