In a method of drying grain the grain (e.g. from a harvester) supplied by elevator 13 and hopper 12, is conveyed along channel 22 by flighted conveyer 11 and discharged from the end of channel 22 to form a heap about air conduit 14 extending centrally through the drying building, the height of heap being such that the resistance to airflow in the heap is greater in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction and air pressurized by fan 17 is passed laterally out of the conduit 14 and through the heap. The grain in freely falling from the end of channel 22, is initially free to form a heap, the upper surface of which assumes its natural angle of repose. When the heap reaches the height of channel 22, the grain is dragged along the upper surface of the heap by conveyer 11 and freely slides down the forward side slopes of the heap. The air conduit 14 may be provided with perforated ...
