Abstract
Post-harvest crop handling from field to drying complexes in Peninsular Malaysia is always a recurring problem to the farmers especially in the wet season. Labour cost for operations like bagging loading onto the lorry and transportation to drying complexes is substantial. The problem of queues at drying complexes is not unusual. Bulk handling system provides an alternative to overcome the problem. With adequate machineries for field harvesting and transportation and facilities for bulk handling at complexes cost of operation can be reduced by 7.00 (Ringgit) per tonne.
