When grain is harvested in Kentucky at moisture contents exceeding 13 to 14 percent, it must be dried to insure long-term safe storage. The drier the stored grain, the longer it will retain its quality.
Energy Fact Sheet: Air-Type Solar Collectors For Agricultural And Residential Use, Blaine F. Parker
Energy Fact Sheet: Air-Type Solar Collectors For Agricultural And Residential Use, Blaine F. Parker

This publication provides information on three basic air-type solar collectors for the purpose of explaining the characteristics of each. The collectors may be purchased assembled or constructed on the site. In either case an efficient collector of the right type should be selected for a given application.

Recently, there has been some concern about energy utilization in agricultural production. Shortages of natural and LP gas have affected many livestock producers, especially swine producers utilizing LP gas as a supplemental heat source in farrowing facilities. These shortages, coupled with an ever-increasing price for fuel and electricity, have encouraged many producers to begin looking for alternative energy sources.

One of the keys to successful in·bin grain drying and aeration is the matching of a drying or aeration fan to the drying or storage bin. A properly designed system will be more efficient in terms of both drying and energy utilization. The quantity of air that may be delivered through the grain depends upon grain type, bin size, fan type, fan horsepower, depth of grain, percent of foreign material and the extent to which the grain is packed.
