Lac's price dropped, 'instantaneously' inventing the oil press

Whenever the harvest season, the peanuts fall again, Mr. Luu Quang Truong is "angry" day and night, trying to "make" the peanut oil press machine. The peanut pressed into oil sells more money and has more sources of residues for animal feed .

Mr. Luu Quang Truong (Vinh Trung village, Cam An Nam commune, Cam Lam district, Khanh Hoa) has successfully built a peanut oil press machine (peanut) . This machine helps many people to increase their income and has more sources of residues for animal feed.

'Engineer' does not have a degree

Over the past 2 months, many people in Cam Lam were excited when they had the 'Made in Vietnam' machine invented by the farmer Luu Quang Truong.

Mr. Zhang peanuts (peanuts) into peanut oil presses.Before the gas flows into oil, the machine can clean peanuts.

Mr. Truong said, I was not allowed to study the mechanics lesson but went through many years of experience and paid attention to finding the "mechanism." The peanut oil press machine was designed to perform the stages such as rubbing and grinding. beans, steam and oil presses Along with 2 workers, this machine squeezes from 150 to 200 liters of clean oil and 350 kg of by-products (oil cake) every day, every 3 kg of dry peanuts will produce 1 liter of cooking oil and the rest It is the byproduct.

According to Mr. Truong, harvesting 1 ha of peanuts and selling them is about VND 56 million, while the oil is lost (VND 100,000 / liter) and VND 74 million will be collected. profit increased by 18 million VND / ha compared to selling whole.

Mr. Zhang said, two years ago, his family planted peanuts, and at the time of harvest, prices fell. Meanwhile, clean peanut oil products are scarce in the market.'That's so much,' he shook hands and fumbled around the night to make a peanut oil press. After nearly 6 months of hard work, he successfully implemented the machine.

The peanut oil press machine invented by Mr. Truong runs at low electricity costs.If the power goes out, the operator uses the hand to press.

Mr. Truong said, last week, the harvest peak should have to run continuously but the machine has no problems. Average price of oil press for people is 4,000 VND / kg. After finishing finished products, if people do not take oil cakes, they can sell them to him for 5,000 VND / kg.

The machine works quite simply, only cost electricity from 2,000 - 3,000 VND / day. When the power is out, it is possible to perform oil pressing manually. To date, Mr. Truong has installed 3 peanut oil presses for sale to people in Khanh Hoa province.

Effective . unexpected

Mr. Nguyen Dinh Hien (Vinh Dong village, Cam An Nam commune) said: 'Listening to an oil press machine, I brought 240kg of peanuts to try it. The effect is surprising, the machine works quickly, the beans do not fall out, the oil drops beautiful, and ensures food safety and hygiene '.

In addition to squeezing oil, Mr. Hien brought oil cakes to feed cows and pigs at home. This is the second time he brought peanuts to Mr. Zhang's home. The first batch after Mr. Hien brought the oil to the people around him bought it all, not enough to supply. This crop yielded peanuts, plus sold oil, so Hien profit nearly 3 million VND / sao. With convenient oil press, Mr. Hien said, the next season will continue to expand the area of ​​growing peanuts .

People bring peanuts (peanuts) to squeeze, in addition to recovering oil, people also have very good oil cake products.

Mr. Nguyen Van Yen - Chairman of Cam An Nam Farmers' Association commented that Mr. Truong actively studied all kinds of machines for farmers. Previously, he succeeded in many machines, such as grass tillers to grow wheat and sugarcane; Sugar stuffing machines, etc. Particularly, the oil press machine has many advantages, compact, easy to install, high mobility, manipulation, low cost and easy repair.

"Mr. Zhang's peanut oil press machine went into operation, partly to solve the shortage of labor, facilitate the transformation of local crops. The Farmers' Association is making a submission dossier. functional officials to recognize Mr. Luu Quang Truong's solution of scientific and technical innovation . " , Mr. Nguyen Van Yen affirmed.
