Description

本発明は、籾（もみ）米（以下、「籾」という。）などの穀物に含有した機能性成分であるγ-アミノ酪酸（通称：ギャバ＜ＧＡＢＡ＞）を増加させる施設に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a facility for increasing γ-aminobutyric acid (common name: GABA), which is a functional ingredient contained in cereals such as glutinous rice (hereinafter referred to as “rice cake”).

昨今、食品に含有された機能性成分の一つであるγ-アミノ酪酸が注目されている。γ-アミノ酪酸は人体の血液上昇を抑制するなどの健康維持又は疾病予防に有効な物質として知られており、例えば玄米に含まれている。このγ-アミノ酪酸の含有量を増加（富化）させる方法としては、例えば、本出願人による特許文献１の方法が知られている。特許文献１の方法は、一般的な米麦用循環式乾燥機を用いて、原料玄米を機内循環させながら高湿空気を通風して緩慢な水分上昇を行い、この後に、貯留タンク内に数時間静置させることにより、玄米に胴割れを生じることなくγ-アミノ酪酸の含有量を大幅に富化させるものであった。 Recently, γ-aminobutyric acid, which is one of functional components contained in foods, has attracted attention. γ-Aminobutyric acid is known as a substance effective for maintaining health such as suppressing blood rise in the human body or preventing disease, and is contained in, for example, brown rice. As a method for increasing (enriching) the content of γ-aminobutyric acid, for example, the method of Patent Document 1 by the present applicant is known. The method of Patent Document 1 uses a general rice-type circulatory dryer to circulate the raw brown rice in the machine and ventilate it with high-humidity air to slowly increase the water content. By allowing it to stand for a long time, the content of γ-aminobutyric acid was greatly enriched without causing cracks in the brown rice.

特開２００７−２１５５０４号公報JP 2007-215504 A

しかしながら、上記特許文献１の方法には玄米中のγ-アミノ酪酸を富化させる際の生産性に問題があった。すなわち、上記特許文献１の方法では、玄米を原料とするとともに一般的な米麦用循環式乾燥機を用いて、玄米に胴割れを生じないように0.2％／ｈ以下の緩慢的な加水を行うため、その加湿に係る所要時間と、その後の貯留タンク内で静置させることによってγ-アミノ酪酸を富化させる所要時間（例えば10時間）とが掛かる。また、この他、前記循環式乾燥機において、玄米中のギャバ富化処理がバッチ式で行われるために、ギャバ富化した玄米を連続的に大量生産することが困難であり、生産性に問題点があった。
そこで、本願発明は、上記問題点にかんがみ、玄米に亀裂を生じることなく、ギャバ富化した玄米を連続的に大量生産して生産性を向上させる施設を提供することを技術的課題としたものである。 However, the method of Patent Document 1 has a problem in productivity when enriching γ-aminobutyric acid in brown rice. That is, in the method of the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, a slow hydration of 0.2% / h or less is performed using brown rice as a raw material and a general rice wheat circulation dryer so as not to cause cracking of the brown rice. Therefore, the time required for the humidification and the time required for enriching γ-aminobutyric acid (for example, 10 hours) by standing in the storage tank thereafter are required. In addition, in the circulation type dryer, since the process of enriching brown rice in the brown rice is performed in a batch system, it is difficult to continuously mass-produce the brown rice enriched with the gain, and there is a problem in productivity. There was a point.
Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has a technical problem to provide a facility for continuously increasing the productivity of unpolished brown rice by mass production without cracking the brown rice. It is.

It is the operation control program (Example 3) to perform.

次に、本発明のギャバ富化穀物の製造施設１の作用について、図４のフローを参照しながら、三つの実施例を説明する。 Next, three examples of the operation of the GABA-enriched grain production facility 1 according to the present invention will be described with reference to the flow of FIG.

実施例１
（生籾からギャバ富化する運転制御プログラム）：
前記ギャバ富化穀物の製造施設１において、荷受ホッパー２から荷受された高水分籾（例えば水分２４％）は、前記中央制御部２４による管理のもと、粗選機４及び計量機５を経て貯留タンク８ａに順次一次的に貯留されて、前記送風機８ｂからの送風によって通風される（ステップ１，ステップ２）。（図４参照） Example 1
(Operation control program that enriches from ginger):
In the Gabba-enriched grain production facility 1, high moisture mash (for example, 24% moisture) received from the receiving hopper 2 passes through the coarse selector 4 and the weighing machine 5 under the control of the central control unit 24. The air is stored temporarily in the storage tank 8a in order and ventilated by the air blown from the blower 8b (steps 1 and 2). (See Figure 4)

次に、貯留タンク８ａに一次貯留された生籾（水分約２４％）は、前記ギャバ生成装置１２に順次供給し、ギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内に堆積される。ギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内に生籾が一杯まで供給されたら、その時点で一旦生籾を搬送供給するのを中止するとともに、ギャバ生成タンク１２ａの各繰出しバルブ１２ｈ・・・、繰出バルブ１２ｃの各駆動を開始する。また、同じく、前記加湿温風生成供給装置１３及び吸引ファン１４も駆動を開始する。これにより、前記加湿温風生成供給装置１３で生成された加湿温風は、吸引ファン１４の吸引作用によって、加湿温風供給風胴１２ｆから各送風管１２ｄ内に供給された後に、各送風管１２ｄを構成する前記多孔壁の各孔から噴風されてギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内に生籾の粒間を通風して生籾を加湿し、この後、前記各排気管１２ｅを構成する多孔壁の各孔から各排気管１２ｅ内に吸入されて前記排風胴１２ｇを介して吸引ファン１４から排風される。 Next, the ginger (water content of about 24%) primarily stored in the storage tank 8a is sequentially supplied to the GABA generating device 12 and deposited in the GABA generating tank 12a. When the ginger is supplied to the full capacity of the gap generation tank 12a, the supply of the ginger is stopped at that time, and the feeding valves 12h,... To start. Similarly, the humidified hot air generating / supplying device 13 and the suction fan 14 also start to drive. As a result, the humidified warm air generated by the humidified warm air generating and supplying device 13 is supplied from the humidified warm air supply wind tunnel 12f into each of the blower tubes 12d by the suction action of the suction fan 14, and then each of the blower tubes. 12d is blown from each hole of the porous wall and passes through the ginger grains in the gap generating tank 12a to humidify the ginger. Thereafter, the porous wall constituting each exhaust pipe 12e The air is sucked into the exhaust pipes 12e from the holes and exhausted from the suction fan 14 through the exhaust cylinder 12g.

初期運転（還流制御運転）：
前記ギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内の生籾は、前記加湿温風によって加湿及び加温されながら繰出バルブ１２ｃの駆動によって順次繰り出され、前記切換弁１６ａを介して穀物還流装置１６を介してギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内に還流される。このとき、生籾はギャバ富化させるための条件として（図５の条件表参照）、前記ギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内の生籾に通風する加湿温風を温度約７０℃で湿度９０％〜９８％とし、かつ、通風時間（タンク内滞留時間）を少なくとも２時間とするのがよい。このため、運転開始直後の初期運転においては、ギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内の下部に堆積した生籾に少なくとも２時間の通風時間（タンク内滞留時間）を与えるため、ギャバ生成タンク１２ａの大きさ及び/又は繰出しスピード等（流下スピード）を考慮しながら、前記生籾を、穀物還流装置１６を介してギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内に任意時間還流・循環させる。 Initial operation (reflux control operation):
The ginger in the GABA generation tank 12a is sequentially fed by driving the feeding valve 12c while being humidified and heated by the humidified hot air, and the GABA generating tank 12a is passed through the grain return device 16 via the switching valve 16a. Is refluxed in. At this time, as a condition for the ginger to be enriched in the ginger (see the condition table of FIG. 5), the humidified warm air that is passed to the ginger in the gab production tank 12a is heated to a temperature of about 70 ° C. and a humidity of 90% to 98% And the ventilation time (retention time in the tank) is preferably at least 2 hours. For this reason, in the initial operation immediately after the start of operation, in order to give a ventilation time (residence time in the tank) of at least 2 hours to the ginger accumulated in the lower part of the GABA generation tank 12a, the size of the GABA generation tank 12a and / or Alternatively, the ginger is circulated and circulated in the GABA generation tank 12a through the grain recirculation device 16 for an arbitrary time while taking into consideration the feeding speed and the like (flowing speed).

ギャバ富化のメカニズム：
ギャバ富化のメカニズムについては、ギャバは、籾内部の玄米に水を付加することで主に胚芽内に蓄積されたグルタミン酸が脱炭酸酵素によって転換・生成されるものなので、ギャバ生成に適した温度・湿度の空気により、玄米を加湿して胚芽中のギャバを富化（生成）して胚乳部に移行されるというものである。 Gabba enrichment mechanism:
With regard to the mechanism of GABA enrichment, GABA is a temperature suitable for GABA production because glutamic acid accumulated mainly in the germ is converted and produced by decarboxylase by adding water to the brown rice inside the rice bran. -Humid air is used to humidify brown rice to enrich (generate) the germ in the germ and transfer it to the endosperm.

連続運転：
前記初期運転を終えると、続いて、連続運転を行う。連続運転は、初期運転によってギャバ生成タンク１２ａで２時間の循環通風を終え、このとき水分が約２７％となった生籾（ギャバ富化した籾）を繰出バルブ１２ｃから順次排出し、事前に切換えた前記切換弁１６ａを介して前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１に搬送供給し、乾燥運転を開始する。その一方で、新たな生籾の搬送供給を一旦中止していたのを再開し、貯留タンク８ａから新たな生籾原料をギャバ生成タンク１２ａに順次、ギャバ富化を終えて排出して減った分だけ断続的に供給し、貯留タンク８ａ内の生籾を連続供給して大量のギャバ富化した生籾の生産を行う（ワンパスの流下でギャバ富化する）。このとき、新たに供給された生籾原料が２時間、前記条件の加湿温風の通風が受けることができるように各繰出しバルブ１２ｈ・・・の駆動スピードは調整され、これによって時間当たり約２０トンのギャバ富化した生籾を製造することができる。これにより、ギャバ富化した大量の生籾を効率よく短時間に製造することができる。以上がステップ３。 Continuous operation:
When the initial operation is completed, continuous operation is subsequently performed. In the continuous operation, the circulation operation for 2 hours is finished in the GABA generating tank 12a by the initial operation, and the ginger (gab that has been enriched with GABA) having a moisture content of about 27% is sequentially discharged from the feeding valve 12c in advance. It is conveyed and supplied to the circulating grain dryer 11 through the switched switching valve 16a, and a drying operation is started. On the other hand, the supply of new ginger was temporarily stopped and resumed, and new ginger raw materials were sequentially discharged from the storage tank 8a to the GABA generation tank 12a after exhausting the GABA. The supply of ginger in the storage tank 8a is continuously supplied to produce a large amount of ginger-enriched ginger (gap-rich with one-pass flow). At this time, the driving speed of each feed valve 12h... Is adjusted so that the freshly supplied ginger raw material can receive the humidified warm air of the above conditions for 2 hours. Tons of gab enriched ginger. As a result, a large amount of ginger rich in gab can be efficiently produced in a short time. This is step 3.

なお、前記加湿温風の通風条件である、加湿温風を温度約７０℃で湿度９０％〜９８％、かつ、通風時間（タンク内滞留時間）を少なくとも２時間については、本発明は、原料を玄米でなく籾としているので、玄米に上記通風条件を適用すると玄米の胴割れが増加して後工程の精米工程、無洗米加工工程で砕米の発生増加となって適用できないが、籾であるが故に、また籾であるが故の胴割れが生じることなく、効率よくギャバ富化した生籾を大量に生産するための条件である。 In addition, about the humidification warm air which is the ventilation conditions of the humidification warm air, the humidity is 90% to 98% at a temperature of about 70 ° C., and the ventilation time (retention time in the tank) is at least 2 hours. Is not rice, but it is rice bran, so if the above ventilation conditions are applied to brown rice, the cracking of the brown rice will increase and it will not be applicable because it will increase the generation of crushed rice in the subsequent rice milling process and washing-free rice processing process. Therefore, it is a condition for efficiently mass-producing ginger that has been enriched efficiently without the occurrence of shell cracks due to drought.

次いで、前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１のタンク内にギャバ富化を終えた生籾が搬送されて所定量が張り込まれると、後続搬送される生籾は別の循環型穀物乾燥機１１に搬送張り込まれる。前記張り込み終了した循環型穀物乾燥機１１は乾燥運転を開始して、水分が約１７％（半乾籾）になるまで生籾を熱風通風しながら循環乾燥を行う（ステップ４）。 Next, when the ginger that has been enriched is fed into the tank of the circulation type grain dryer 11 and a predetermined amount of the ginger is stuck, the subsequently conveyed ginger is conveyed to another circulation type grain dryer 11. It is stuck. The circulated grain dryer 11 that has been laid is started to dry and circulate and dry the ginger with hot air until the water content is about 17% (semi-dry rice cake) (step 4).

前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１において乾燥が終わると、籾は前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１から排出・搬送して前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に貯留する（ステップ５）。そして、前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１の空き状況をみながら、前記半乾籾を前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１に搬送して水分約１５％まで仕上げ乾燥を行い、仕上げ乾燥終了後は、再度、前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に搬送して貯蔵する（ステップ６，ステップ７）。 When drying is completed in the circulation type grain dryer 11, the straw is discharged and conveyed from the circulation type grain dryer 11 and stored in the grain storage silo 19 (step 5). Then, while observing the availability of the circulation type grain dryer 11, the semi-dried rice cake is transported to the circulation type grain dryer 11 and finish-dried to a water content of about 15%. It is transported and stored in the grain storage silo 19 (steps 6 and 7).

上記実施例１のようにしてギャバ富化した籾について、籾摺りを行った玄米のギャバの含有量（ＧＡＢＡ値）を測定したところ、通常の玄米では２．０ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂであるものが、本発明による玄米では１８ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂ、無洗米処理にした米粒では１４ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂの各含有量であり、ギャバの含有量が増加していることが確認された。また、本発明による玄米又は無洗米を炊飯した米飯は、食味が良好であるが、いわゆる籾臭については多少あった（図５参照）。 When the content (GABA value) of the brown rice subjected to rice kneading was measured for the rice cake enriched as in Example 1 above, 2.0 mg / 100 gd. b is 18 mg / 100 gd. for brown rice according to the present invention. b, 14 mg / 100 gd. It was each content of b, and it was confirmed that the content of GABA is increasing. Moreover, the cooked rice cooked with the brown rice or the non-washed rice according to the present invention has a good taste, but there was some so-called bad smell (see FIG. 5).

実施例２
（半乾籾からギャバ富化する運転制御プログラム）：
実施例２の説明において、前記実施例１と重複するステップの説明は省略する。荷受ホッパー２から荷受された高水分籾（例えば水分２４％）は、順次、循環型穀物乾燥機１１に搬送されて張り込まれ、水分が約１７％（半乾籾）になるまで循環乾燥される（ステップ１、ステップ２）。次いで、乾燥が終了した半乾籾は、前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１から排出・搬送して前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に貯留される。このようにして、荷受された全ての高水分籾（例えば水分２４％）を複数の循環型穀物乾燥機１１によって半乾籾状態（水分約１７％）まで乾燥し、前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に貯留する（ステップ３）。 Example 2

In the description of the second embodiment, the description of the same steps as those in the first embodiment will be omitted. The high moisture mash (for example, 24% moisture) received from the cargo receiving hopper 2 is sequentially conveyed to the circulation type grain dryer 11 and stretched and circulated and dried until the moisture content is about 17% (semi-dry rice cake). (Step 1, Step 2). Next, the semi-dried rice that has been dried is discharged and conveyed from the circulation type grain dryer 11 and stored in the grain storage silo 19. In this way, all the high moisture cakes received (for example, 24% moisture) are dried to a semi-dry rice state (water content about 17%) by a plurality of circulation type grain dryers 11 and stored in the grain storage silo 19. (Step 3).

次いで、前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に貯留した半乾籾を順次、ギャバ生成タンク１２ａに供給張り込みし、前記実施例１のステップ３と同じくギャバ富化させる条件で、前記ギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内の生籾に通風する加湿温風を温度約７０℃で湿度９０％〜９８％とし、かつ、通風時間（タンク内滞留時間）を少なくとも２時間とする（図５の条件表参照）。そして、前記実施例１と同様に初期運転（還流制御運転）と連続運転とを行って、時間当たり２０トンのギャバ富化した生籾を製造することができる。これにより、ギャバ富化した大量の籾を効率よく短時間に製造することができる（ステップ４）。 Then, the semi-dry rice cakes stored in the grain storage silo 19 are sequentially fed into the GABA production tank 12a, and the ginger in the GABA production tank 12a is subjected to the same enrichment condition as in Step 3 of the first embodiment. The humidified warm air that is ventilated is set at a temperature of about 70 ° C. and a humidity of 90% to 98%, and the ventilation time (retention time in the tank) is at least 2 hours (see the condition table in FIG. 5). Then, the initial operation (reflux control operation) and the continuous operation can be performed in the same manner as in Example 1 to produce a ginger enriched with 20 tons per hour. As a result, a large amount of rice cake enriched with a gap can be efficiently produced in a short time (step 4).

次いで、ステップ４でギャバ富化された籾（水分約２０％）を順次を複数の循環型穀物乾燥機１１に搬送供給して仕上げ水分の約１５％まで乾燥し、乾燥を終えた籾は前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に貯留する（ステップ５、ステップ６） Next, the rice cake enriched in step 4 (water content of about 20%) is sequentially fed to a plurality of circulation type grain dryers 11 and dried to about 15% of the finished water content. Store in the grain storage silo 19 (Step 5, Step 6)

上記実施例２のようにしてギャバ富化した籾について、籾摺りを行った玄米のギャバの含有量（ＧＡＢＡ値）を測定したところ、通常の玄米では２．０ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂであるものが、本発明による玄米では１８ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂ、無洗米処理にした米粒では１４ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂの各含有量であり、ギャバの含有量が増加していることが確認された。また、本発明による玄米又は無洗米を炊飯した米飯は、食味が良好であり、いわゆる籾臭については気にならない程度であった（図５参照）。 When the content of GABA (GABA value) of brown rice subjected to mashing was measured for the rice cake enriched as in Example 2 above, 2.0 mg / 100 gd. b is 18 mg / 100 gd. for brown rice according to the present invention. b, 14 mg / 100 gd. It was each content of b, and it was confirmed that the content of GABA is increasing. Moreover, the cooked rice which cooked the brown rice or the non-washed rice by this invention had the favorable taste, and was a grade which is not worried about what is called a bad smell (refer FIG. 5).

なお、上記実施例２における前記加湿温風の通風条件（加湿温風を温度約７０℃で湿度９０％〜９８％、かつ、通風時間（タンク内滞留時間）を少なくとも２時間）については、前記実施例１で述べたことと同様に、籾であるが故に、また籾であるが故の胴割れが生じることなく、効率よくギャバ富化した籾を大量に生産するための条件である。 In addition, regarding the ventilation conditions of the humidified warm air in Example 2 above (the humidified warm air has a temperature of about 70 ° C. and a humidity of 90% to 98%, and the ventilation time (retention time in the tank) is at least 2 hours) As described in Example 1, this is a condition for efficiently producing a large amount of moths enriched with galleys without causing the body cracks due to the cocoons and because of the cocoons.

実施例３
（乾燥籾からギャバ富化する運転制御プログラム）：
実施例３の説明において、前記実施例１及び実施例2と重複するステップの説明は省略する。荷受ホッパー２から荷受された高水分籾（例えば水分２４％）は、順次、循環型穀物乾燥機１１に搬送されて張り込まれ、水分が約１５％（仕上げ乾燥籾）になるまで循環乾燥される（ステップ１、ステップ２）。なお、乾燥が終了した仕上げ乾燥籾は、一旦前記循環型穀物乾燥機１１から排出・搬送して前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に貯留しておくようにしてもよい。 Example 3
(Operation control program to enrich from dry rice cake):
In the description of the third embodiment, the description of the same steps as those in the first and second embodiments is omitted. The high moisture soot (for example, 24% moisture) received from the cargo receiving hopper 2 is successively conveyed to the circulation type grain dryer 11 and is stretched and circulated and dried until the moisture becomes about 15% (finished drying soot). (Step 1, Step 2). The finished dry rice cake after drying may be temporarily discharged and transported from the circulation type grain dryer 11 and stored in the grain storage silo 19.

次いで、乾燥が終了した仕上げ乾燥籾は、順次、ギャバ生成タンク１２ａに供給張り込みし、前記ギャバ生成タンク１２ａ内の生籾に通風する加湿温風を温度約７０℃で湿度９０％〜９８％とし、かつ、通風時間（タンク内滞留時間）を少なくとも４時間とする（図５の条件表参照）。そして、前記実施例１と同様に初期運転（還流制御運転）と連続運転とを行って、時間当たり２０トンのギャバ富化した生籾を製造することができる。これにより、ギャバ富化した大量の籾を効率よく短時間に製造することができる（ステップ３）。 Next, the finished dry rice cake that has been dried is sequentially fed into the GABA generation tank 12a, and the humidified warm air that is passed through the ginger in the GABA generation tank 12a is set to a temperature of about 70 ° C. and a humidity of 90% to 98%. In addition, the ventilation time (retention time in the tank) is set to at least 4 hours (see the condition table in FIG. 5). Then, the initial operation (reflux control operation) and the continuous operation can be performed in the same manner as in Example 1 to produce a ginger enriched with 20 tons per hour. As a result, a large amount of candy that has been enriched can be efficiently produced in a short time (step 3).

次いで、ステップ3でギャバ富化された籾（水分約１８％）を順次を複数の循環型穀物乾燥機１１に搬送供給して仕上げ水分の約１５％まで乾燥し、乾燥を終えた籾は前記穀物貯蔵サイロ１９に貯留する（ステップ４、ステップ５） Next, the rice cake enriched in step 3 (water content of about 18%) is sequentially fed to a plurality of circulation type grain dryers 11 and dried to about 15% of the finished water content. Store in grain storage silo 19 (steps 4 and 5)

上記実施例３のようにしてギャバ富化した籾について、籾摺りを行った玄米のギャバの含有量（ＧＡＢＡ値）を測定したところ、通常の玄米では２．０ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂであるものが、本発明による玄米では１８ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂ、無洗米処理にした米粒では１４ｍｇ／１００ｇｄ．ｂの各含有量であり、ギャバの含有量が増加していることが確認された。また、本発明による玄米又は無洗米を炊飯した米飯は、食味が良好であり、いわゆる籾臭については気にならない程度であった（図５参照）。 When the content (GABA value) of the brown rice subjected to rice bran was measured for the rice cake enriched as in Example 3 above, 2.0 mg / 100 gd. b is 18 mg / 100 gd. for brown rice according to the present invention. b, 14 mg / 100 gd. It was each content of b, and it was confirmed that the content of GABA is increasing. Moreover, the cooked rice which cooked the brown rice or the non-washed rice by this invention had the favorable taste, and was a grade which is not worried about what is called a bad smell (refer FIG. 5).

なお、上記実施例３における加湿温風の通風条件（加湿温風を温度約７０℃で湿度９０％〜９８％、かつ、通風時間（タンク内滞留時間）を少なくとも４時間）については、前記実施例１及び実施例２で述べたことと同様に、籾であるが故に、また籾であるが故の胴割れが生じることなく、効率よくギャバ富化した籾を大量に生産するための条件である。 In addition, the ventilation conditions of the humidified warm air in Example 3 (the humidified warm air is about 70 ° C. and the humidity is 90% to 98%, and the ventilation time (retention time in the tank) is at least 4 hours) are as described above. In the same manner as described in Example 1 and Example 2, it is a condition for efficiently producing a large quantity of cocoons enriched with a gabbe without causing a shell crack due to the cocoons. is there.

本発明（実施例１、実施例２及び実施例３）により、前記大規模穀物乾燥調製貯蔵施設（共同乾燥調製施設）１において効率よくギャバ富化生産した大量の籾は、サイロに備蓄されるものであり、需要に応じて籾摺り・精選等の処理を施して適宜出荷することができるものである。よって、市場に商品（ギャバ富化したお米）をスムーズに迅速的に供給することができる。また、本発明によるギャバ富化した籾は、そのまま家畜等の飼料としても使用することができるため、気温や騒音やにおいなどによる環境ストレス、長距離輸送等による輸送ストレス、飼育密度等によるストレスなど、家畜のストレス障害の緩和や予防の効果が期待できる。さらに、昨今のトウモロコシなどの輸入家畜飼料の価格の高騰化に対して、トウモロコシなどの家畜飼料の一部に代わるものを日本国内において大量生産することができる。 According to the present invention (Example 1, Example 2 and Example 3), a large amount of rice cake produced efficiently and enriched in the large-scale grain drying preparation storage facility (joint drying preparation facility) 1 is stored in a silo. It can be shipped as appropriate after processing such as hulling and selection according to demand. Therefore, it is possible to smoothly and quickly supply products (gap-rich rice) to the market. In addition, the GABA-enriched kite according to the present invention can be used as feed for livestock as it is, so environmental stress due to temperature, noise, smell, etc., transport stress due to long distance transportation, stress due to breeding density, etc. The effect of alleviating and preventing stress disorder of livestock can be expected. Furthermore, in response to the recent rise in prices of imported livestock feed such as corn, it is possible to mass-produce substitutes for livestock feed such as corn in Japan.

本発明における実施例１（生籾からギャバ富化）、実施例２（半乾籾からギャバ富化）及び実施例３（仕上げ乾燥籾からギャバ富化）に関しては、実施例２を採用するのが好ましい。その理由として、実施例２は、荷受籾を一旦半乾燥して貯蔵可能にした後にギャバ富化処理するので、共同乾燥調製施設の荷受工程において次々荷受して荷受待ち等の稼働ロスを最小限にできるほか、米飯品質において籾臭が気にならないものお米を効率的に大量生産できる故である。 Regarding Example 1 (ginger-to-gap enrichment), Example 2 (semi-drying-to-gab enrichment) and Example 3 (finish-dried gab to enrichment) in the present invention, Example 2 is adopted. Is preferred. The reason for this is that, in Example 2, since the receiving container is semi-dried and stored, and then the GABA enrichment process is performed, the receiving loss of the joint drying preparation facility is received one after another and operation loss such as waiting for receiving is minimized. In addition, it is possible to efficiently mass-produce rice that does not have a bad smell in the quality of cooked rice.

なお、本発明は、実施例１（生籾からギャバ富化）、実施例２（半乾籾からギャバ富化）及び実施例３（仕上げ乾燥籾からギャバ富化）を適宜切換えて実施できるように中央制御部２４において制御するようにすることもできる。これにより、収穫シーズン中の共同乾燥調製施設の荷受ピーク時期の実施形態と、荷受ピーク時期でない時期の実施形態等を任意に切換えて、共同乾燥調製施設の稼働率を維持しつつ効率的にギャバ富化したお米を大量生産することが可能である。 It should be noted that the present invention can be implemented by appropriately switching between Example 1 (ginger-to-gap enrichment), Example 2 (semi-drying-to-gap enrichment), and Example 3 (finishing dried gab to enrichment). It is also possible to control the central control unit 24. As a result, it is possible to efficiently switch between the embodiment of the peak receiving period of the joint drying preparation facility during the harvest season and the embodiment of the period not during the peak receiving period, etc., and efficiently maintain the operating rate of the joint drying preparation facility. It is possible to mass-produce enriched rice.

昨今注目されているギャバ富化した玄米を効率的に大量生産し、需要市場に対して迅速な供給が可能になる。また、昨今のトウモロコシなどの輸入家畜飼料の価格の高騰化を背景に、トウモロコシなどの家畜飼料の一部に代わるものを日本国内において大量生産することができる。 Gabba-enriched brown rice, which has been attracting attention recently, can be mass-produced efficiently and supplied quickly to the demand market. In addition, with the recent increase in the price of imported livestock feed such as corn, a substitute for a part of livestock feed such as corn can be mass-produced in Japan.
