The Effect of Microwave Drying Parameters on the Germination of Wheat SeedsPublished by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, St. Joseph, Michigan www.asabe.org Citation: 2012 Dallas, Texas, July 29 - August 1, 2012 121336994.(doi:10.13031/2013.41726)Authors: Mohamed Hemis, Ruplal Choudhary, Dennis G Watson Keywords: Wheat drying, Germination rate, Microwave drying, Mathematical modeling In order to prevent germination damage of harvested wheat seeds, faster drying techniques are preferred. Microwave drying is considered an energy efficient technique to achieve this goal. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of microwave (MW) drying on germination of wheat, using a domestic microwave oven. (Download PDF) (Export to EndNotes)
