Cereals and pulses flour based preparations are being used as staple diet. Different varieties of cereals and pulses yield different variety flours. For production at large scale these variations need to be checked which can results in various quality of breads and other preparations. For bakeries and snack making industry it becomes essential to monitor the flour for getting the right taste. NIR helps you in monitoring the variables thus standardizing flour quality. This is done fast and at site for quick result. Thus, optimization of processes like grinding time etc can be done. This helps in saving costs in daily operations.

Raw materials used for various processed food manufacture needs to be monitored to get the best food snack. The better healthy food snacks can be made from the right quality raw materials. Raw materials are stored at various locations and when landing at the production sites they may become inferior in quality. NIR helps in testing the such raw materials which saves money and increases sale of the products because of better product quality. Also optimizing the use of raw materials and superior quality of raw materials can be lead to savings and revenue increase.

Snacks are FMCGs that are consumed in large quantities across the globe. Quality of these snacks are regulated by local or national or international authority bodies. To manufacture good quality snacks monitoring during the process is important. Also as additives like seasonings can be monitored. This can lead to increase revenue to snack manufacturing companies, by determining the ideal quantity of seasonings and other additives, by increasing sales of good quality snacks. NIR is being used to test such snacks onsite of production and offsite in testing laboratories. Ease of use and quick results make it an ideal choice of instrument for testing. Processes can be monitored and quick changes can be made to save costs and other resources.

Livestock have a vital role to play in the food chain. Healthy livestock is desirable to all farm owners. The important criteria for keeping them healthy is feeding them the right feed. This makes them immune to diseases and results in better yields of livestock based productions. Also the proper optimization of feed quantity based on quality of feed given to livestocks saves time and money. NIR is vastly used to check quality of the feeds given to these livestock.

Forages are an essential diet component for some of the high valued livestock like horse, cow etc. The quality of diet makes the the livestock healthy. A healthy life stock leads to better production of livestock based yield. This leads to increase in revenue to the farmer and owner of livestock. NIR analyzes these forages for parameter the affect the quality. This data helps to related processes like storage ,shelf life etc. of these forages and can save time and money related to the use of forages.
