One of the important challenges that grain trade mills and silos face in maintaining product quality is moisture-related deterioration. Especially grain that has been waiting for long periods can be wasted due to moisture. Grain dryers solve this problem effectively while also providing significant advantages.
Although drying of grains has been practiced since ancient times, application management has undergone significant evolutions over time. For example, old-generation grain dryers were not effective enough to adapt to harsh weather conditions. As a result, drying could not be provided at the required level. However, technologically advanced grain dryers can effectively dry grain today even in harsh conditions or at high humidity levels of up to 35 percent.
In terms of marketing success, grain dryers play a crucial role wherever grain is produced, stored, and sold.
5 Prominent Advantages of Grain Dryers
- Provides safer storage of grain: Grain becomes vulnerable to rotting, spoiling and sprouting if stored under adverse conditions. Each of these problems is mostly due to the moisture content in the grain. Reducing the moisture content in grain prevents grain from spoiling, thus preserving the quality of the product and allowing it to be stored safely for long periods.Reduces mold and aflatoxin formation in grain: Reduced moisture also eliminates the risk of harmful factors such as mold or aflatoxin, which damage grain and can also pose a danger to human and animal health. The occurrence of any of these problems in grain can lead to the grain being unusable and wasted, leaving farmers in a difficult situation. Preventing this problem with grain dryers contributes to both the reliability and profit of the producer.
Reduces waste: Grain drying eliminates the risks associated with possible spoilage of the product, allowing the product to be transported multiple times, significantly reducing losses due to theft or exposure to external factors such as birds and rodents. It ensures that the harvested product can be marketed without significant losses.
Increases efficiency and quality: Grain drying allows for faster processes, greater flexibility and increased productivity. Drying, which takes several days with traditional methods, can be completed in a few hours with grain dryers. This provides significant time savings. Moreover, it offers flexibility by reducing dependence on external conditions and allowing drying at the desired time.
Brings more added value and profitability: Increased product quality prevents losses by eliminating product loss and the need to reduce product prices. In addition, achieving higher efficiency thanks to increased productivity means higher profits.
