NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (First Revision) which is identical with ISO 24333 : 2009 ‘Cereal and cereal products - Sampling’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Foodgrains, Allied Products and Other Agricultural Produce Sectional Committee and approval of Food and Agriculture Division Council.

This standard was first published in 2000 adopting the corresponding ISO Standard ISO 13690 : 1999 ‘Cereal and pulses and milled products - Sampling of static batches’ under dual numbering system. Requirements for sampling of foodgrains, pulses and milled cereal products were earlier covered in IS 2814 : 1978 ‘Method for sampling of smaller size foodgrains (first revision)’, IS 3714 : 1978 ‘Method for sampling of bigger size foodgrains (first revision)’ and IS 5315 : 1978 ‘Methods of sampling for milled cereals and pulses products (first revision)’ which were based on the ISO recommendations on the subject. During the review of these standards, it was decided to align the text with the corresponding ISO Standards, which had been updated and revised as a single amalgamated standard, ISO 13690 : 1999. This single comprehensive standard IS 14818 : 2000 superseded IS 2814, IS 3714 and IS 5315. IS 14818 : 2000 also covered various sampling instruments used for sampling of cereals, pulses and milled products. These requirements were earlier covered in IS 2815 : 1964 ‘Slotted tube sampler’, IS 2816 : 1964 ‘Grain sampler (PARKHI type)’, IS 2821 : 1964 ‘Thermo-sampler’, IS 3729 : 1966 ‘Corn sampler (PARKHI type)’ and IS 4940 : 1968 ‘Sample divider’, which were also superseded by IS 14818 : 2000 Consequently, upon publication of IS 14818 : 2000, the Indian Standards namely IS 2814, IS 2815, IS 2816, IS 2821, IS 3714, IS 3729, IS 4940 and IS 5315 were withdrawn.

As ISO 24333 : 2009 has cancelled and replaced ISO 13690 : 1999, this revision has been undertaken to align the standard with ISO 24333 : 2009.

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are however not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker
