unprocessable
Adjective
Meaning
unprocessable (comparative more unprocessable, superlative most unprocessable)
Unable to be processed; unsuitable for processing.
Examples
Sugar beet plants are susceptible to Rhizomania ("root madness"), which turns the bulbous tap root into many small roots, making the crop economically unprocessable.
The availability of processing plant capacity and the weather both influence the duration of harvesting and processing – the industry can store harvested beets until processed, but a frost-damaged beet becomes effectively unprocessable.
