White mulberry (Moraceae group and the genus Morus), is from soft fruit group and sensitive to mold, yeast and impact. Drying white mulberry is one of the oldest methods used to protect the white mulberry. Microwave is a rapid method of drying food and their energy can be compared with hot air drying. Microwave drying system significantly reduced drying times without any negative effect on product quality. Drying time for white mulberry samples reduced 30.72%. The effective moisture diffusivity for white mulberry samples changed from 3.19 ×10-8 to 8-10 × 11.91×10-8 m2 / s. The activation energy and moisture diffusion constant for white mulberry samples were calculated as -10.8 (W/g) and 3×10-8, respectively.
