Developing a low-cost Sago Bark Processing Machine in Papua New Guinea aims to reduce the human effort and time required for local Sago farmers. The machine would replace the tedious and time-consuming traditional methods of extracting sago starch, which are currently used for rice production. The machine would consist of an actuator, a grinding wheel, and pulley systems that turn the mixing shaft into a housing filled with a ground sago bark and water mixture. The straining mechanism would separate the starch and fiber into starch and fiber. The machine would be simple, portable, and cost-effective, making it suitable for local and subsistence farmers or anyone who prefers to plant and harvest sago in their backyards. This could potentially reduce the percentage of imported energy foods in Papua New Guinea.
