Abstract
Drumstick leaves (Moringa oleifera) was studied to develop technology for its powder to study the sensory evaluation of developed powder. Washed leaves were dried separately in mechanical tray drier, solar tray drier, open sun light and shade drying. The organoleptic evaluation of drumstick leaves powder samples revealed shade dried was best acceptable, hence was selected for further investigation.
