Seven Steps Help You to Set Up a Rice Mill Plant in Nigeria

Rice milling business is a very viable and profitable business to invest in. Especially now that the government is very much interested in the rice farming and processing industry.

The ban on the importation of rice across Nigeria’s land borders and the renewed commitment of the Federal Government to boost the production of the crop shows a huge gap in rice production that exists in the country.

We can work with you and set up a rice mill factory like this for you. We will provide all necessary machinery needed in the rice mill plant, install and test run, and train your workers on operation and maintenance.

How to Set Up a Rice Mill Plant?

First, acquiring a suitable land space：

First things, easily accessible and well-connected land space is needed. The land in contention should be easy to reach with various transportation modes. Proximity to the marketplace and the raw materials (crop fields) is an added advantage since it helps in cutting down the transportation charges.

Second, finalizing orientation and placement of machinery:
A good orientation would provide distinctiveness to different sections of the mill, still enabling it to function in tandem as a whole. The layout should be designed well enough to facilitate the inbound operations included in the process of rice milling. Special emphasis on the required number of units and inventory in a particular section would help in coping with the workload at crucial times. Different sections of the rice mill should be connected with good quality roads for easy transportation.

Third, select the right rice mill machine:
The basic machinery required for the rice milling plants is:
Cleaning machine
De-stoning machine
Paddy husking machine
Rice whitening machine
Rice polishing machine
Rice grading machine
Rice milling machine
Grain dryer
Weighting and packaging machine

Forth, ensuring adequate water and electricity supply:
Quintessential supplies like water and electricity are a must for setting up any factory, let alone rice mills. All the machines run on electricity and water helps in regulating the production of rice at various stages throughout the process. Hence, an incessant supply of both supplies should be ensured beforehand.

Fifth, storage planning
Where there is production, there is storage. The end product needs to be stored in a suitable place that ensures its quality and longevity. Ideal storage remains unaffected by external factors like precipitation, moisture, temperature, and pressure.

Sixth, utilization of by-products and wastage removal:
By-products improve profits and hence come to aid the efficiency of the whole process. As far as rice mills are concerned, husk and certain kinds of oils are the by-products obtained along with the end product. Post yield, whatever remains other than by-products is waste and should be completely removed to ease operations of the rice mill. 

Seventh, quality check and control:
Rice as a food, is prone to pests if left unattended at any stage of production. Unwanted adulteration can creep in at various stages of rice milling and can lower the quality of the end product. Hence, a periodic quality check is indispensable to any rice milling setup. All precautionary measures should be practiced to ensure good quality control.
