HARVESTHUB

Cool. Preserve. Process. A mobile solar-powered crop-preservation concept designed to help agricultural communities reduce post-harvest losses.

The exploration

Design intent

Explore a rugged towable machine that brings post-harvest processing closer to farmers. The concept integrates a deployable solar canopy, insulated chamber, wash-and-grade station and modular cooling or drying configurations.

Further development

The study proposes a modular, locally repairable architecture using folded sheet metal, an insulated body, commercial refrigeration components, battery storage and a deployable photovoltaic canopy. Thermal performance, energy balance, towing dynamics, hygiene, durability and manufacturing cost would require detailed engineering and field validation.
