The equilibrium moisture content of red beetroot has been studied and the corresponding sorption- desorption curves have been obtained at temperature 20°C. The strain measurement method has been used to establish the sorption curves. Analytical dependence describing the sorption and desorption curves have also been derived. Values of equilibrium moisture contents for temperatures higher than 20°C have been obtained by the Pass and Slepchenko’s method. The results are presented in graphical and table form.
