Apologies! The start time is actually 10 am EDT. The time in the image
attached to the previous, is incorrect (I based my text on that without
double checking).

Hello Shubhangi,
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! I have a quick question for you on the equipment for hulling.
Is the hulling equipment abrasion-based? Like a rice huller? If you have a manufacturer/equipment brand and model I would be very grateful.
Thank you!
