ABSTRACT:
The present invention entails a bulk tobacco barn having a generally enclosed drying area and a forced air heating system associated directly with the barn for generating a system of air and circulating the air through tobacco supported within the drying area of the barn. As a part of the forced air heating system, there is provided heating means that is thermostatically controlled to heat the system of air to maintain an appropriate temperature level within the drying area of the structure during the curing and drying process. Provided in conjunction with the bulk tobacco barn is an auxiliary heating system that comprises a stove or heater having a fire box for receiving and burning material such as wood or coal. In accordance with the present invention, during curing and drying, a portion of the system of air being circulated through the bulk barn can be directed to the heater or stove of the auxiliary heating system where the air passes in a close heat exchange relationship with the heater such that the air is heated, and then is directed back into the system of air being circulated through the bulk barn.
