In India, rice is one of the main foods. Lots of farmer grows rice in their farm. Number of processes is required to take rice from its crop. Threshing and winnowing is one of the creepy parts in it. Rice threshing and winnowing is done by manually (by labor) mostly. The labor cost is now a days increasing rapidly for both threshing and winnowing processes. Separate machines are available for threshing and winnowing. So in this research a machine is developed for both threshing and winnowing purpose. Generally, farmer use remaining bunch of rice straw to feed their cattle. In normal threshing machine it is crushed. The machine is developed in such a way that rice straw remains intact after threshing and winnowing, so it can be used to feed cattle.
