MEDICINAL GRADE OIL: MUSTARD OIL

1 INTRODUCTION

Consumption of edible oil is substantial throughout the country. All Indian


households use it every day. Various types of edible oils are available in the country
e.g. Groundnut, cottonseed, rapeseed, sunflower, mustard etc.

Edible oils are made from respective oil seeds by extraction process and there are
some national as well as regional brands. The North-East region of the country
including Meghalaya consumes mustard oil in large quantity.

2 PRODUCT AND ITS APPLICATION

2.1 Applications

Edible oil is an integral part of the Indian palate since long. India is perhaps the
largest producer and consumer of different types of edible oils. Preference for the
type of edible oil differs from state to state, e.g. People from Western India prefer
groundnut or cottonseed oil whereas North-East States like mustard oil. Hence this
note is confined to mustard oil.
2.2 Compliances and quality standards

Compliance with PFA Act is necessary whereas registration under AGMARK is advisable.
BIS has specified quality standards vide 546 IS 546:1975.

3 DESIRED QUALIFICATION FOR PROMOTER

The promoter should ideally be having formal qualifications in the field of food
processing. Short term training in relevant field would also do.

4 MARKET POTENTIAL AND MARKETING ISSUES, IF ANY

Due to peculiar food habits and preparation methods, Indians use large quantities of
edible oils every day. With growing population, demand is increasing every year and
the country is importing semi-processed edible oils since long.
As per our preliminary survey, Mustard oil is preferred as a cooking medium by the
people of Meghalaya. As per one estimate, there are some oil mills in Meghalaya but
even then mustard seeds are sold to other states and mustard oil produced in other
states is sold in Meghalaya in ample quantity. Thus, good quality mustard oil produced
locally can be sold in the market.

5 RAW MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS


The all-important raw material shall be mustard seeds. The average recovery of oil is
considered to be 30%. Hence to produce 72 tons of edible oil per year at 100%
capacity utilisation, mustard seeds to the extent of 240 tons shall be required. In view
of production of mustard seeds in excess of 75,000 tons every year, no difficulty is
envisaged in procurement.

Other materials in small quantities like additives and purifying agents shall be available
easily. Packing materials like tins, jars or plastic pouches shall be required for which
prior arrangement is advisable.
6 MANUFACTURING PROCESS

The process of manufacture is well established and conventional. To begin with, dry
mustard seeds are fed to Table Ghani or oil extractor wherein about 90% of the oil is
extracted.

Further processing in expeller results in additional extraction of oil. Liquid oil and solid
portion is then separated in filters. The solid portion known as oil cake is sold as cattle
feed. Edible oil is packed either in tins, jars or food grade plastic pouches.

The oil contents depend upon quality of seeds but the average recovery of oil from
seeds is in the range of 30% to 34%.
