History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 115114-15 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • Grain drying has been a crucial part of agriculture for centuries. The first recorded use of artificial grain drying dates back to the Roman Empire, where they used heated air to dry grains. In the 19th century, the first mechanical grain dryers were invented in Europe and North America. These early dryers used wood or coal as fuel and were inefficient. In the 20th century, advancements in technology led to the development of more efficient and automated grain dryers. In the United States, the industry has seen significant growth since the 1950s, with the introduction of continuous flow dryers and advancements in computer technology. Today, the industry continues to evolve with the use of renewable energy sources and the development of more efficient and sustainable drying methods.
