Transforming Agricultural Preservation
The Solar Dryer is a revolutionary portable food drying system powered entirely by the sun. Designed specifically for small and marginal farmers, it solves the critical problem of post-harvest food loss while enabling value addition at the source.
With 20-40% of fruits and vegetables lost post-harvest in India, our technology brings hygienic, controlled drying directly to farmers' fields, extending shelf life, increasing income, and promoting sustainable food systems.
Solving Real Agricultural Challenges
Addressing the critical gaps in existing food preservation solutions
Post-Harvest Losses
20-40% of fruits and vegetables are lost before reaching the market
