Forage dryer is a mechanical equipment specially used to dry forage. It usually dries fresh, high-moisture grass through technical means such as heating, air circulation, and humidity control, so that the moisture in the grass evaporates to achieve a drying effect. The working principle of the grass dryer is similar to other drying equipment, that is, it uses a heat source to generate hot air, and exchanges heat with the grass through the circulation of hot air, thereby drying the grass.

The forage dryer has a wide range of uses and is important, mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Drying process: The main function of the grass dryer is to dry fresh, high-moisture grass. By drying the grass, the moisture content can be significantly reduced, making it easier to store and transport.

2. Extend the storage period: The dried forage can effectively extend the storage period due to its low moisture content. This helps reduce losses caused by mildew, rot, etc., especially in seasons when the supply of pasture is insufficient, and can ensure that livestock have adequate sources of feed.

3. Maintain nutrition: The drying process can reduce the moisture content of the pasture while maintaining its nutritional content. This is of great significance for improving the quality and nutritional value of forage. Dried forage is more easily digested and absorbed by livestock, helping to improve the growth rate and health of livestock.

4. Improve the taste: The dried grass tastes better and is more popular among livestock. This helps improve livestock feed intake and feed utilization, thereby improving the economic benefits of animal husbandry.

5. Utilization of agricultural waste: In addition to pasture, the pasture dryer can also be used to dry agricultural waste (such as wheat straw, bean straw, peanut stalks, etc.) and convert it into valuable feed resources. This will help realize the resource utilization of agricultural waste and improve the comprehensive benefits of agriculture.

Forage dryers play an important role in animal husbandry and agricultural production. It can not only improve the quality and utilization of forage, but also promote the resource utilization of agricultural waste, providing strong support for the development of animal husbandry and agriculture.
