Abstract
Drying of freshly harvested and artificially rewetted yellow dent shel led corn was studied experimentally under microwave conditions. The de hydration rate of rewetted corn was found to be higher than that of fr eshly harvested corn; the deviation in the dehydration rates was found to be a power law function of the moisture content.
