Abstract: Garlic is widely used as a condiment, for medicinal and pharmaceutical preparations. Traditional methods of garlic peeling are laborious, time and cost intensive. In this paper, major focus has been laid on testing economic feasibility of small scale developed garlic peeler as our markets are mainly dominated by small scale manufacturing and processing units. Taking into account the manual peeling, the process is highly laborious and time consuming and also there occurs shortage of labor during peak seasons, ultimately adding more cost to peeling operation. Moreover, already available units for garlic peeling are costly and not affordable by small scale entrepreneurs. So, the developed garlic peeling machine will be substantial in serving the small scale entrepreneurs and processing units.
