{"product_id":"solar-dryers","title":"Solar Dryer's","description":"\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKenyan farmers lose a big portion of their harvest to spoilage every season. Mold, insects, dust, and rain ruin produce that took months to grow.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA solar dryer fixes that. It uses the sun’s heat to remove moisture from produce. But unlike open‑air drying, the dryer is enclosed. No dust settles on your food. No insects get in. Rain does not reach it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe result is clean, dry produce that lasts for months. You can sell it weeks or even months after harvest. Prices are often higher then because supply is lower.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSunlight passes through the transparent polyethylene cover. It heats the air inside the dryer. The black interior floor absorbs extra heat. Temperatures rise higher than outside.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHot air flows across the produce on the drying shelves. It picks up moisture. The moist air exits through ventilation outlets at the top. Fresh, dry air enters from the bottom inlets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe cycle repeats all day. Produce dries in one to two days. Open‑air sun drying takes seven days or more. And the enclosed dryer keeps everything clean.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhere to Use It\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFruits like mangoes, bananas, pineapples, and papayas. Slice them thin and dry them. You get dried fruit for snacks or export.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVegetables like tomatoes, kales, carrots, and capsicums. Dried vegetables are light and easy to store.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHerbs like mint, basil, rosemary, and coriander. Dried herbs sell well in local and export markets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrains like maize, beans, and sorghum. Proper drying prevents aflatoxin, the dangerous mold that makes grain unsellable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFeatures in Detail\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe frame is galvanized steel. It is strong and rust-resistant. It stands up to Kenya’s sun and rain.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe cover is 200‑micron UV‑treated greenhouse polyethylene. It has anti‑drip properties. That means condensation does not drip onto your produce. Dripping water can cause mould.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe floor is black. It absorbs heat. That raises the internal temperature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe shelves have multiple levels. You can dry large volumes in one session. Each shelf holds a layer of produce.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVentilation inlets and outlets keep air moving. Without good airflow, drying is slow and uneven.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCustom Fabrication\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery solar dryer is custom built. IrriHub looks at your produce type, your drying volume, and your farm setup.

Active uses a small fan to move air faster. Active costs more but dries faster.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGalvanized steel structure.
