Rapeseed Grain Dryer: Preserving Quality in an Ancient Oil Crop

Rapeseed, a crop with a rich history, has been cultivated in China and India for thousands of years. Originating from the Eastern Mediterranean region, rapeseed began its global spread over 2,000 years ago, becoming one of the most widely cultivated oil crops. The vibrant yellow blooms of rape flowers are not only visually stunning but also produce seeds that are a vital source of cooking oil.

Rapeseed, a small-sized oil-rich grain, requires careful drying to preserve its quality. Zhongfengnongke dryers are well-suited for this task, featuring external sheets with 1.5 mm perforations that ensure efficient drying. For the safe storage of rapeseed, it is recommended to achieve a moisture content of 8-10% and maintain an air temperature of 65°C during the drying process.

Properly dried rapeseed is essential for maintaining its quality and ensuring its value as a cooking oil source. Utilizing a specialized rapeseed grain dryer helps achieve optimal drying conditions, securing the crop’s longevity and marketability.
