Acts To Scale Up Solar Drying To Reduce Post Harvest The initiative seeks to upscale fabrication of solar dyers and support solar drying as a service in kenya. acts is part of a consortium awarded a grant to scale up solar dryers to reduce post harvest loses (phl) in kenya. the grant was awarded by the institute of food technologists (ift) through the seeding the future global food system challenge. Solar dryers can significantly reduce post harvest losses by providing a low cost, energy efficient method for preserving crops, fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural products. for this reason, acts is leading a consortium that aims to fabricate 500 low cost dryers over 5 years intended to reach over 40,000 smallholder farmers.
Training Solar Dryer Fabricators To Reduce Post Harvest Losses A panel discussion during the policy dialogue on the potential of solar dryers to reduce post harvest losses held in nairobi, kenya. a cross section of government officials, farmers, regulators, private sector, financial institutions and cooperatives converged in nairobi to discuss the potential of solar dryers to reduce post harvest losses (phl), curb carbon emissions and unlock opportunities. 2. drying solution to post harvest loss. drying is a widely used solution to mitigate post harvest losses in various agricultural products. the drying process involves reducing the moisture content of harvested crops, which helps prevent spoilage, inhibit microbial growth, and maintain the quality of the product for extended periods [5, 6. Passive solar dryers play a crucial role in reducing postharvest losses in fruits and vegetables, especially in regions like sub saharan africa with low electrification rates and limited financial resources. however, the intermittent nature of solar energy presents a significant challenge for these dryers. passive solar dryers integrated with thermal energy storage (tes) can reduce. In india, farm level post harvest losses are 3.82 kg q for rice and 3.28 kg q for wheat which is sufficient to feed 10 crores of the population. post harvest loss is being neglected in india but sooner or later it will be reflected. this study emphasizes the use of solar dryers for drying agricultural products to reduce post harvest loss and.

Post harvest losses (phls) in sub saharan africa (ssa) pose a significant threat to food security and economic stability. phls account for a substantial portion of food waste and economic losses. During the last decades, various types of solar dryers have been developed to reduce post harvest losses and to improve product quality2. solar drying is an emerging technology to preserve a wide range of products in the agriculture sector3. in uganda, using solar drying technology enables rural communities to consume healthy food.
