Alvan Blanch will show the latest adaptations to its proven grain drying and handling systems at Cereals next week.

The company’s continuous double flow grain dryer is now available with a mobility package to suit the farm’s needs and to avoid the need for planning and infrastructure at the farmyard. It is designed to be future-proof to be relocated to suit changing farming operations.

Features included a fold down roof and detachable hopper for easy set up; it is available in a basic ‘on farm’ specification for moving around the farm or with a full road kit for towing at up to 30km/hr.

Crops can be dried without pre-cleaning, and inbuilt air recirculation allows heat from the dryer to be re-used, saving on fuel. Models are from 6.0 to 28t/hr input capacity.

The Rotary Cleaner/ Grader has been adapted for intercrops, using an aspirator and four screens to allow cleaning and grading of one crop, for example oats, with the other two screens used afterwards to process beans.

Suitable for 20-100t/hr throughputs, the system can be mounted on a trailer or stand. The company has also been capacity testing for cleaning of novel crops such as buckwheat and borage seed.
