Drying small seed lots requires accuracy, consistency, and careful airflow control. O’Mara Seed Research Dryers are designed specifically for research programs, breeding operations, and specialty seed producers who need reliable small-batch drying without risking seed quality.
Our modular drying systems use controlled heated airflow and stackable tote boxes to dry multiple seed samples while keeping each lot separate. The result is accurate moisture reduction, preserved germination, and efficient handling of valuable research materials, such as seed corn, soybeans, flowers, hemp, and experimental seeds.
Built with a compact footprint and flexible configuration, O’Mara research dryers adapt easily to changing research programs, production trials, and testing environments.

A self-contained burner-blower unit produces precisely controlled heated air. Air flows evenly through each drying station to safely remove moisture.
Seeds are placed in heavy-duty stackable tote boxes. Each tote acts as an independent drying chamber, keeping seed lots separated.
Slide-adjustable louvers at each station allow operators to fine-tune airflow for different seed types and moisture levels.
Because the system is modular, you can add drying stations as your research or production needs grow.
After drying, airflow can be reduced to allow the seed to cool gradually, preventing stress or quality loss before storage.
Gentle drying conditions protect the viability and vigor of research seeds and breeding materials.
Precise airflow and temperature control help achieve consistent target moisture levels.
Separate tote boxes ensure each seed sample stays isolated, protecting research integrity.
Dry a wide range of products, including:
Handle multiple research lots simultaneously without the complexity of large production dryers.
Forkable tote boxes make it easy to transport, stack, and store seed samples safely.
O’Mara Seed Research Dryers are built for professionals who need precision and flexibility when handling high-value seed material.
