Soy bean is a protein and fat rich crop with very wide ranges of health and medicinal benefits. Its seed is covered by hull which needs to be removed before its use as soy dal or making milk and milk products from soybean. A soybean dehuller for such applications was developed by CIAE its dehulling efficiency was evaluated under present study. For this purpose soybean Samples of 5 kg each was prepared at different moisture content, the moisture level was increased by addition of measured amount of water and conditioning for 24 to 60 hrs. The five moisture levels selected 9, 11, 13, 15, 17 and 19% (w b). During study the results obtained were very encouraging. It was found that dal recovery increased with increase in moisture content. The mass of soybean passing out unhusked through the dehuller increased with increase in moisture content. This increase was very sharp after 15%(w.b) moisture content. The dehulling efficiency decreased with increase in moisture content. The rate of decrease becomes steeper after 15% moisture content (w b). The capacity of machine was found to be highest i.e. 96.2 kg/hr at 9% moisture level, and it decreased with increase in moisture content. The mathematical models were also developed to predict the correlation between different variables under study within the range of recorded observations.
