Microwave-vacuum drying is an accepted drying method for agro-products,which is nonetheless still relatively unknown to some.This paper attempted to give an overview of the most important aspects of microwaves-vacuum drying(MVD)and their relevance to agro-products processing.Some advantages on microwave-vacuum drying properties were discussed to provide a better insight into the reasons for the use of microwaves.Also the effects of the MVD on the quality of several agro-products and reasonable processing parameters were given,which develop the guidance to the application of MVD on the agro-products dehydration.As a potential drying technology,MVD will be broadly utilized for the other agro-products
