Horse Gram

Kollu/Horse Gram, botanically associated with Macrotyloma uniflorum, is offered as dried whole horse gram seeds for ethnic grocery wholesalers, flour processors and pulse traders. The grain commonly presents hard reddish-brown small legume seeds, while lot origin and processing influence particle size, flavour and cooking or milling behaviour.

A reference or illustrative moisture criterion for this commodity is Moisture ≤12% (illustrative trade target). An international quality schedule should specify seed size, soaking response and stones, plus moisture and permissible foreign matter. Where the food has a commodity-specific Codex standard, those published limits are shown in the technical field. Otherwise, the displayed figures are labelled illustrative export trade targets rather than universal regulatory thresholds. Dehusking, colour sorting or cleaning must be assessed according to the exact grain form.

For reliable bulk handling, consignments benefit from dry hygienic food-grade sacks, batch coding and sampling records. Receiving checks commonly cover live infestation, odour, stones, broken kernels and cargo moisture exposure. Trade documents should consistently use the listed commodity name and its processing description.
