    DEHYDRATED DRUMSTICK (MORINGA OLIFERA) POWDER

    1. INTRODUCTION

    Drumstick also known as Moringa Olifera scientifically is a unique vegetable that


    contains many types of amino-acids, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial
    compounds and nutrients which make it one of the best nutritional supplements. It is
    grown in large quantities in the State and especially in the southern districts. Drumstick
    forms an important ingredient in sambhar prepared traditionally at home or in
    restaurants and eating-houses. The flavour is most preferred. Being messy to use, the
    powder is finding a lot of acceptability both in India and abroad. There is a considerable
    surplus of this vegetable that can be processed (dehydrated) for consumption
    throughout the year.

    2. PRODUCT AND ITS APPLICATION

    Moringa Oleifera, an Indian origin plant has gained its importance due to nutraceutical
    values and is considered as indispensable plant for health management. It is an
    excellent source of minerals like iron, calcium and vitamins A, B, B1, B2, B3, B6, C, E
    as well as macro minerals, trace minerals and phytonutrients. This powder can be
    taken as a nutraceutical supplement and as food additive. Moringa is used for anemia,
    arthritis and other joint pain (rheumatism); asthma; cancer; constipation; diabetes;
    diarrhoea; epilepsy; stomach pain and ulcers, intestinal ulcers; intestinal spasms;
    headache; heart problems; high blood pressure; kidney stones; fluid retention; thyroid
    disorders; beneficial for lactating mothers and bacterial, fungal, viral, and parasitic
    infections. This product owing to extraordinary nutritional value is used for treating
    malnutrition.

    3. DESIRED QUALIFICATION OF PROMOTER

    Graduate from Life Sciences and allied disciples. Having knowledge about marketing
    or possess marketing network.
    4. INDUSTRY OUTLOOK/ TREND

    Dehydrated drumstick powder is used in various formulations of nutraceutical


    products. In pharmaceutical, there are number of verticals but nutraceutical is an area
    which is growing at faster speed in India due to awareness for healthcare. Increased
    life span in India and growing population of senior citizens has increased the demand
    for nutraceutical products and their ingredients like drumstick powder. It is estimated
    that nutraceuticals demand is growing at the rate of 10% per annum.

    5. MARKET POTENTIAL AND MARKETING ISSUES, IF ANY

    Food processing industries purchase the product in bulk quantities. The dehydrated
    powder also has a good export potential. The major market outlets are the “A” class
    outlets. The product also finds placement in self-service counters and departmental
    stores. In the initial period, awareness in the market may be created by the promoters.
    Also, as long as the government and NGO’s programs on malnutrition exists, the
    market size will become bigger, stable and permanent.

    While the Indian nutraceutical industry is currently nascent, it has great potential and
    is expected to grow at a growth rate of 16 percent year on year for the next five years.
    This makes it one of the key markets for entry for nutraceutical product and ingredient
    manufacturers.

    6. RAW MATERIALS REQUIREMENT

    Raw materials will never be a problem since drumsticks are used as raw materials
    which are easily available.

    7. MANUFACTURING PROCESS

     Washing
    Fresh mature drumsticks are selected for processing. They are washed to
    remove adhering dirt.
     Grading
    The vegetable is graded to remove damaged and immature sticks.

     Steaming and blanching


    The sticks are steamed and blanched in huge tanks to facilitate pulp extraction.

     Pressing
    The soft sticks are pressed between rollers to extract the pulp.

     Slurry preparation
    Thick slurry is prepared with the pulp obtained.

     Drying
    The slurry is dried in a vacuum drier with the core drying temperature ranging
    between 50 to 55 degrees centigrade.

     Grinding
    It is ground to a fine powder along with some edible starches and anti-caking
    agents.
