Mobile motorized rice threshing machine comprises of the prime mover (combustion engine), the blower, the threshing unit, discharging unit, and threshing basket.It was developed using locally sourced materials to reduce drudgery in the threshing of rice, infiltration of stones and other debris, as well as breakage and enhance production of adequate quantity and quality of processed rice.Performance test analysis that was carried out, revealed average throughput and threshing efficiency for mobile motorized rice thresher are 82.9kg/hr and 92.7% respectively while manually powered rice thresher throughput is 33.3kg/hr and its threshing efficiency is 66.7%.Thus, the Mobile Motorised rice thresher is a veritable option for both medium and large scale rice production.
