Popular Abstract
Food scarcity is a common occurrence for farmers in the rural Himalayan regions. As fruits and vegetables are a crucial part of most farmers' diet, food deficiency can become evident in between harvesting periods, when there is no fresh supply. A lack of proper storage facilities and preservation methods further amplify this as the commodities that are stored can start to rot. The farmers do the best they can to store the greens, relying on drying the food in the open air with the help of the sun. This is tedious work and requires constant care while the result is still not satisfying. The welfare of farmers can thus be improved remarkably with the introduction of a more efficient solar dryer.
