Expert tips for unheated air rice drying in Chambers County
Agricultural engineers from the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station report recommendations for operating heated air drying systems for stored rice. Key steps include filling bins to eight feet, pushing continuous air to reduce moisture from above 22 percent to 16 percent, then to 13 percent for storage. If rain interrupts, cool and resume, with monthly moisture checks from bottom to top. Continuous fan operation aids cooling, with insect fumigation if needed.
