Seed Dryers & Seed Storage Systems
The Bry-Air® Seed Dryers and Seed
Storage Systems dry and preserve seeds without affecting their
quality.
Seeds need to be preserved for short term and
long term for future use ..replanting as well as research.
Seed ageing and ultimately death occurs due to time. However,
it is possible to ensure long survival of seeds by controlling
temperature and relative humidity. Reduction in temperature
and moisture content ensures increased seed life.
Seeds can be preserved for long period by lowering
the moisture content of seeds to around 5%.This is achieved
by drying the seeds. Conventionally, seeds are dried at elevated
temperatures which destroys their germination potential.
Bry-Air Seed Dryers, based on the state-of-the-art
Desiccant Dehumidification
Drying Technology, dry the seeds to the required level in
approximately eight(8) hours without affecting their quality.
Seeds dried prior to storage can regain moisture
and suffer damage if not stored under controlled conditions.
Dried seeds can be preserved for years in dehumidified stores
without loss of germination potential.
Bry-Air Dehumidification based Seed Dryers
and Storage Systems are being used extensively world over
by commercial and plant breeding organisations including the
FAO .
