Common Problems at Farm & Processing Stage — How We Solve Them
Peanuts are vulnerable to aflatoxin if drying, storage or handling is poor. We intervene at each critical control point.
1) Aflatoxin Risk
- Harvest at correct maturity; reduce damage during digging.
- Rapid drying to moisture ≤ 8% using forced-air dryers.
- Lot segregation and routine aflatoxin testing (ELISA/HPLC) before processing.
2) In-shell & Kernel Damage
- Gentle decorticators and calibrated dehullers to avoid splits.
- Optical sorting to remove discoloured and damaged kernels.
- Controlled roasting profiles for consistent flavor and color.
3) Storage & Insect Control
- Clean, elevated warehouses; pallets & fumigation as per buyer requirement.
- Temperature & humidity monitoring; silos for large volumes.
- Integrated pest management (IPM) and periodic monitoring.
4) Cross-Contamination
- Dedicated lines for peanut-only processing to avoid allergen carry-over.
- Equipment cleaning SOPs and validation logs.
- Clear labelling and lot separation in storage and shipment.
5) Quality Consistency
- Batch sampling per ISO/ASTA guidelines with retained samples.
- Rapid moisture & free fatty acid (FFA) checks for oil buyers.
- Supply contracts with farmer groups for volume stability.
6) Documentation & Traceability
- Batch-wise COA, aflatoxin reports, phytosanitary (if required).
- COO, commercial invoice, packing list & photos of stuffing.
- Digital traceability shared with buyer portal on request.
Seasonal Availability & Product Mix
Primary harvest windows vary by region (Kharif & Rabi patterns). We schedule procurement and processing to avoid high-humidity months.
