  • Should sunflower seed be dehulled before oil extraction?
  • Subramanian, Shamanthaka Sastry, & Venkateshmurthy, ( 1990) reported that dehulling of sunflower seed before the oil extraction could improve the quality of oil (low wax content and improved colour) and de-oiled meal (low fibre and high protein content) along with reduction in the physical damage of oil expression unit.
  • Why is whole sunflower seed used in oil extraction?
  • In India, whole sunflower seed is mechanically expressed for the oil extraction, which results in the rapid wear and tear of the machine. The presence of hull decreases the oil recovery and reduces the food value of so obtained de-oiled meal (high in fibre and low in protein).
  • How can the quality of sunflower oil be improved?
  • The quality of sunflower oil could be improved, in terms of low wax and improved colour, by removing the hull before the oil extraction and it is imperative to have knowledge of fracture characteristics of both seed hull and kernel. The grain moisture content affects the performance of handling and processing machinery.
  • Can machine learning predict sunflower oil yield?
  • Sunflower Oil Yield Prediction (SOYP) can help breeders to identify desirable new hybrids with high oil yield and their characteristics using machine learning (ML) algorithms. In this study, we developed ML models to predict oil yield using two sets of features. Moreover, we evaluated the most relevant features for accurate SOYP.
