Kolhu is a traditional method in which oil is extracted from seeds like mustard, almond, peanut, linseed, safflower sesame. In this, oil is extracted drop by drop at room temperature, due to which the nutrients of the seeds remain safe. This is the reason why the oil obtained from the crusher is considered purer and more expensive than the oil made by machine. On an average, 5 to 7 liters of oil can be extracted from one crusher in a day. If more than one crusher is installed, the production increases accordingly. At the same time, it is possible to extract 700 to 1000 liters of oil in a month. Apart from this, production depends on the quality and hard work of the seeds.
