Figs are very important economic forest crops.The production of figs in China is mainly distributed in Xinjiang,Shandong,Jiangsu,Shanghai,Zhejiang,Fujian,Guangdong,Shaanxi,Sichuan and other places.The figs in north China are mainly concentrated in Qingdao,Yantai and Weihai along the coast of Shandong province,and Jiangsu is mainly distributed in Nantong,Yancheng,Danyang and Nanjing,and concentrated cultivation in Fujian province is mainly in Fuzhou.Figs processed into dry products,is a very important deep processing value-added process,now the use of heat pump type fig dryer,the production of figs dry quality is very good,there is no traditional sun products browning,dust pollution,color dim,coking and so on.

Figs can be dried,can also be split after drying,after the cutting of figs drying time to be faster than the whole drying,first clean figs,remove its fruit handle,and then split treatment,can be half cut,but also cut into block strips,and then step through peeling,color protection and other treatment.

Figs drying process:figs fresh fruit water with free water,colloidal water and synthetic water status,moisture content up to 75-80%,high sugar content,if the natural drying of the sun is not enough,it is difficult to make no flowers is dry,the use of air can fig dryer focus on temperature,humidity,wind speed,volume accurate controllable.Depending on the size of the general initial 1 hours to set the temperature should be in the range of 70-85℃,in the short term to make figs water a large amount of evaporation,this 4 hours of dehumidification control in 50%,the second paragraph 8 hours of time,temperature to 60-70℃range as a benchmark,slightly shorten the wet time,humidity control of 30%,the third paragraph 5 hours,The temperature decreased by 50-60℃,the humidity continued to decrease to 10%,the whole process was about 18 hours,and the figs moisture content was reduced to less than 15%.
