  1. Add Value to Your Stored Grain with the Effective On- Farm Grain Storage The storage of the grains after the harvesting season is a time that is most crucial as the growers need to protect the quality as well as the quantity of grain effectively. Maintaining the proper environment and using the best grain storage equipment for the grain is highly important to prevent loss of potential yield. There are various factors that should be considered when you are planning on-farm grain storage for increasing revenues. What are the benefits of storing the grains effectively in on-farm grain storage? The farmers can achieve higher yields and better profits if they can employ innovative and modern techniques for storing the grains effectively. There is various grain storage equipment that can be used for the protection of the grains.

  2. Even some simple devices, tools, gadgets, and equipment are highly useful to protect the grains. Product as simple as grain temperature cablescan be used to connect various devices such as probes and alarm systems for the proper functioning of both. Besides, when it comes to aerating the grains, the use of grain storage fan automation is highly recommended for the smooth operation of the fans. At the same time, it keeps the producer free from the hassle of monitoring the fan as well as the temperature of the grains. Some of the benefits of on-farm storing of grain are listed below 1.Higher value for the harvested grain The first and foremost reason for grain storage is to get higher grain prices after harvest in the future markets. In the Midwest, the producers can get a high price of their yield when there are light delivery periods. Storing the grains for a long time will prevent the cash flow, especially in case of summer months. However, when there is a short-crop year, the producers can expert higher value of grains. Moreover, if the quality of the grains is good in the market, then it will fetch good profits to the farmers. Here, maintaining the appropriate environment for the grains is highly necessary. 2.Enhance efficiency A lot of time and cost is saved on the vehicle, fuel, labor, and speedy harvest are all responsible for reducing the cost and enhancing the efficiency of the storage system. Although, the grains are stored and yet to provide the profit when saved in an effective manner the quality of the grains is retained. 3.Effectively drying the grains When the grains are stored on the farm the cost of drying and aerating is lower as compared to the grain elevator. The grain storage fan automation must be used for drying the grains effectively to attain the right moisture content as well as the temperature of the grains that are stored on the farm. 4.Increase the value of the operation When grains are stored at the on-farm storage facilities then the farmers can save money instead of renting the crop share facilities. Also, storing the grains on-farm adds to the annual ROI and makes it convenient for the farmer to store the grains.

  3. What grain storage equipment can the farmers employ for enhancing the quality of the stored grains by aerating? There is various grain storage equipmentthat is available in the market that helps in enhancing the quality of the grains and maintaining the ideal temperature of the grains. Some of this equipment for grain storage includes the grain storage fan automationwhich is the most useful equipment and tools: Grain storage fan automationis a device that is used to regulate the temperature of the stored grains by adding or removing the moisture content. It is attached to the aeration fans and automatically controls the operation of the fan. It can turn the fan ON and OFF without any intervention of the grower. The fans keep operating for days or a couple of weeks till the grains reach their desired temperature and moisture levels. It is connected to the alarm system and works according to the predetermined temperature levels. These pre-defined temperature levels include a higher level or a lower level of temperature. When the grains reach their desired temperature levels, then the alarm system can trigger the alarm and alert the growers. Also when the grains reach their ideal temperature, the grain storage fan automation tends to turn off the fan as the grain is fully aerated. The grain storage fan automationis connected to the grain bin alarm system with the help of grain temperature cables. These cables are an integral part of the grain bin monitoring system as all the devices work only if they are well connected. You can find all the devices for storing the grains effectively at Farm Shop LLC who are the leading OMR in the USA.
