      It depends on the type of crop and the amount which needs to be dried to be honest.

      But if I was to take grain for example one of our machines could dry around 30 tonnes of grain in an hour. Given that many farmers will be drying for 4 to 8 hours a day during the harvest that’s a lot of grain!
