Abstract

An arecanut husker to husk dry arecanuts has been developed. The operation of husker is done by leg and feeding of nuts by hand. The husker performs the function of loosening the husk which is easily peeled off by hand. An unskilled labourer in a day (8 hours) can make about 40 kg husked nuts.
