Comprehensive industry document on pulse, wheat, rice mills [1]

Primary milling of rice, wheat and pulses is the most important activity in food grains. These grains are grown in almost all parts of India. Few decades ago, these food grains were processed at family level before cooking. Today, due to industrialization and global competitive market trend, it has emerged as a major
industrial activity in small medium scale sector to cater to the needs of increasing population. There are large number of mills engaged in processing/milling of pulses, wheat and rice, and are spread over in almost all states across the country. Due to increasing trend especially in urban areas to buy branded
products, such as wheat flour, rice, pulses, besan etc., it is estimated that the number of units under this category of industries will continue to increase throughout the country.
