Sun-drying resulted in more rapid reduction in seed moisture. The final moisture content attained by the sun-dried seeds was higher than that of the oven-dried seeds at the end of the eight-dry drying period. There was no significant difference (P=0.05) in the germination of the sun-dried and oven-dried seeds during the drying period. The adverse effect of sun-drying became more evident during subsequent storage. This was shown by the more rapid deterioration of the sun-dried seeds especially under ambient conditions (28 deg C-30 deg C; 80% RH)
