Side-by-Side Comparison: Manual vs Automated Bin Monitoring & Management
Grain monitoring and temperature cables are a critical tool for successful grain conditioning and grain storage. But we know that it’s often hard to pull the trigger on technology like this, so we set out to get some hard data to show you the benefits this technology can deliver.
Managing Dry and Wet Grain
Safe grain storage is highly dependent on grain moisture and temperature, and the combination of these would determine the safe storage period and/or the spoilage risk.
Spring Storage is Critical for High Moisture Grain
Stored grain requires regular monitoring during the spring months and high moisture grain should be dried as quickly as possible to prevent spoilage.
Canola Storage and Management
Heat damage in canola during storage degrades the oil quality, darkens the oil color, and increases the free fatty acid (FFA) content. You may have dried and cooled your canola for safe winter storage; however, heating and spoilage risk in stored canola is always present.
