摘要

A procedure for preparing esparto swallows, characterized in that the branches from the july-august esparto cut are gathered by their length in bundles and are then deposited in orderly in low-level rafts, covering them with water and successively with their placement in this form is compressed to cause the exit of air interposed between the decks and between the branches. In this maceration they remain for a long time, which is previously determined by an experimental test which in turn is maintained until the destruction of the resinous and woody materials that make up the esparto grass. After this time they are removed from the base, shaking them to release the wood fragments with this manual operation, for which it is prolonged as long as the visual observation determines it. The next operation normally mounted in chain consists of the grouping of these branches of six into six with selection by similarity of length, separating each six endos groups of three and knotting themselves in this position by their paired ends, and leaving them to dry spontaneously.
