A pomegranate
normally has 24% skin and 14% seeds .In our
production line the skins and the seeds
offload separately. Therefore it is possible
for us to load and ship one or both of them
as a commercial goods to the buyers. At
present we sell the skins to the husbandries
as some part of their feeding materials. The
seeds are favorite foods for the sheep too.
The skin has tannin. The tannin which could
be obtained through boiling the skins is
applied in tanneries.
The seeds have an external cellulose cover
and inside are full of fat cells.
Traditionally the seeds are used in
husbandry and some feeding farms.
Recently extracting oil from these seeds has
set forth for.
