Abstract
The results of experimental studies of changes in the Kirpichev mass-exchange criterion during drying of grain related to leguminous crops, which are susceptible to cracking and deterioration in quality during drying, are presented. Based on the results of experimental studies of the moisture content of the center and the surface of the caryopsis, regression equations have been obtained to determine the maximum allowable values of the Kirpichev criterion for different grain drying modes, which have been verified by determining the germination energy of the grain.
