National Institute of Food Technology, Entrepreneurship, and Management (NIFTEM-T), a pioneering research and educational institution under Government of India is located in Tanjore, Tamil Nadu. The Institute’s initial mandate was to find solutions to preserve high-moisture paddy as paddy harvest season in Southern India coincided with the tail end of the Southwest monsoon. Our Solar Air Heating system has aided them in drying paddy in a hygienic and cost-effective manner.
