In a bid to ensure accuracy and transparency, the Kerala State Cashew Development Corporation (KSCDC) has installed electronic weighing system in all its factories.
From now on, nuts will be weighed in the electronic machine before handing over to labourers in the shelling, peeling and grading sections.
The same system will be followed while collecting the nuts back from workers. Many factories and processing units do not have the facility to accurately record the weight and since the inaccuracies will reflect in wages of the labourers there had been several complaints.
