Storage Period

How long can I store my grain once it’s dried?

Answer:

  1. Estimated safe storage periods can be identified through Krager tables and these estimates are dependent on the crop in question, its moisture level and its temperature.
  2. If the crop is dried and cooled to optimum levels then all year round storage can be achieved.
  3. Many overseas farms still rely on organo-phosphate chemicals to enable them to store the crops for long periods at high crop temperatures. 
  4. However, it has been shown that the chemicals can be virtually eliminated by the introduction of a simple controlled ventilation system to cool the crop.
