Abstract

The amount of peanut consumption in Indonesia has increased while panut production is still insufficient, so it must be imported. Domestic peanut production is caused by several factors such as seed quality, soil conditions, fullfillment of nutrient need and other. One of strategy to increase peanut production is by using a good quality of seeds. The quality of the seed is affected by the moisture content of the seed. how to reduce water content in peanut seeds through the drying process. Drying with low relative humidity can reduce the drying temperature so that the quality of the seeds is maintained. A performance test was conducted by a dehumidifier drying machine with the temperature of 30°C, 40°C, 50°C. Drying was carried out until the moisture content reach 10-11% with every 30 minutes observations. The result showed that the dehumidifier drying machine gave constant air temperature and relative humidity at the drying chamber during the drying period. Duration of drying at the temperature of 30°C, 40°C, 50°C was 15 hours; 14 hours; 4.5 hours. This drying requires a faster time than natural drying in the sun which takes 3-5 days.
