CROP DRYING.

HC Deb 31 July 1931 vol 255 cc2656-7W

Sir A. SINCLAIR

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he has any progress to report with regard to experiments in crop drying?

Mr. W. ADAMSON

The Department of Agriculture for Scotland have suggested to the agricultural colleges in Scotland the desirability of their making further investigations and experiments in crop-drying, and they are also in communication with the Institute of Agricultural Engineering, Oxford, in regard to the merits of improved machinery for crop-drying which has recently been devised.
