This project focuses on the dehydration process and proposes to build a Solar-based Food Dehydration and Preservation System, which is to date almost non-existent in Pakistan. This product has minimal to zero operational cost compared to an electric dehydrator and offers almost 80% more efficient drying than open sun drying(traditional practice).This will not only provide farmers a way to sell a finer form of their yield at a higher price, thus raising their household income, but it will also play a huge role in avoiding food wastage and prolonging the shelf life of their products.
