Current trends towards a healthy lifestyle and, consequently, healthy eating are becoming a key factor in the development of the food and processing industries.

As we know, grains, cereals, textured cereals and cereal-based drinks are recognised and popular health foods. It has led to a strong increase in the area under niche crops over the last 5–10 years. It has led to a strong increase in the area under niche crops over the last 5–10 years.

Agribusiness in Europe is following these trends and increasing its production of these crops, with a share of around 8,5-9 per cent of global production. So why do European businesses choose Ukrainian equipment? There are practical factors behind this: what production capacity do businesses need, and how can they guarantee stable quality of finished products? Moreover, many niche crops require specialised production lines or the reconfiguration of existing equipment.

Historically, companies manufacturing grain processing equipment have paid practically no attention to technologies for alternative crops due to low sales volumes. SCIENTIFIC-INDUSTRIAL CORPORATION “AGRO-SIMO-MASHBUD” - for 35 years, the company has been developing new machinery and technologies specifically for processing niche crops. Over the years, the company has built 146 different cereal mills in 33 countries, with capacities ranging from 36 to 240 tonnes per day. This provides a significant and huge advantage in the market for the development and supply of technological equipment: extensive experience and practical knowledge in the design and manufacture of complex production lines for the processing of niche products. There is currently a high demand, particularly from German agricultural producers, for processing lines for lentils, peas and sorghum.

Thus, in 2026, ‘AGRO-SIMO-MASHBUD’ will have fulfilled its second contract with Germany for the supply of processing lines for pulses. The compete set includes the basic equipment like Abrasive dehullers ЛАБ-1,5, Air separators АСХ, Air separators БСХ-16, cyclones etc.

The company’s practical experience in implementing effective turnkey cereal processing plants (including for export) has become a brand-name for quality and a guarantee of reliable operation. For European Union countries, the equipment is accompanied by all the necessary approval documents and EU declarations of conformity.
