An experimental enclosed, batch-type, solar/hot-air dryer was constructed and evaluated in preliminary tests of drying diced carrots and sliced parsley leaves in a 2-stage process: (1) 6 to 8 hr of direct and maximum planar reflected radiation (reflectors above and beneath 0.3 m/sup 2/ food trays) and (2) heating with air overnight to complete drying.
