What are Harveston's Aeration Solutions?
Our experience, backed by many years of focused industry research, tells us that passing the right amount of ambient air, of the right quality, will gently dry any grain, nut, or seed. We design all our aerated storage solutions using that knowledge.
The resulting solutions consist of the correct number of highly efficient fans coupled to a distribution system specific to the amount and type of product being stored and a controller that senses both the ambient air conditions and the conditions within the product stack.
Our smart controller then delivers the right amount of air at the right time to reduce the moisture levels of the stored product to a preset target, and keep it there.
Once the drying target is reached the controller then chooses the correct amount and type of air to ensure that the product stays consistently at the target moisture. It then sets about ensuring the temperature of the stored product is as low as possible.
With product at the correct moisture and with its temperature as low as possible all biological activity within the stored product is significantly slowed. Research has shown that mould growth does not progress, toxins are not produced and insect lifecycles either cease or are significantly curtailed.
Our solutions can be fitted to silos, rings or bunkers and can be retrofitted to almost any existing aerated storage.

Effective minimisation of stock losses for Almond Producers:
Our smart aeration controller when coupled with a storage ring has been demonstrated to effectively dry wet almond fruit and store the dried product until processing.
Save LABOUR and INSURE against future climate variability with Harveston’s innovative aerated ring storage solution.
Almonds no longer need to dry on the ground, they can be moved to storage straight after harvest with advanced aeration technology delivering MOISTURE AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL, finally putting almond growers in control of drying their fruit and maintaining quality control throughout storage.
