What are the yellow wagons we see everywhere in Bertie County?
We have 94 drying wagons here at the warehouse. Farmers load these with green peanuts after they have been separated from the plants in the fields. Each wagon has a vent in the tailgate. We attach the wagon to our dryers via that vent and then blow hot air up through the peanuts. Peanuts must be dried to 10% moisture in order for them to be sold or stored.
