Abstract
Quinoa is a nutrient powerhouse, boasting high levels of protein (16–18%), over 37% of essential amino acids, and a variety of vitamins and minerals. Quinoa's high protein concentration gives it a high biological value. soybean is utilised because of its high oil content (18–25%) and protein content (38–50%) as a raw material for the production of oil, and soy waste is utilised as animal feed. in soybeans. Finger millet (ragi) has a higher nutritional value than rice and other cereals. The physical properties of Quinoa, soybean and ragi were Finger millet was found to have the highest true density (1.3 g/ml), whereas sorghum The lowest actual densities were found in pearl millet (1.3 g/ml) and at (1.2 g/ml). Bulk density measurements varied from 0.76 to 0.79 (g/ml). ragi had actual densities of 0.83 g/ml and 1.4 g/ml, respectively, whereas finger millet had the highest bulk density (0.83 g/ml). The angles of repose were for quinoa (32°), soybean (29°′), and ragi (28°).
