field day - grain storage systems

Preserving the quality of grains and cereals is essential to ensure food safety and sustainability in the production chain. In this post, we will talk about the importance of adequate storage in the field, the challenges faced by producers and how special storage systems and silos in the Idugel Group can help overcome these challenges.

The importance of proper storage

Grains and cereals are the basis of human and animal nutrition worldwide. Proper storage of these products is crucial to ensure food quality and safety, as well as to avoid financial losses. Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimates that around 30% of global grain and cereal production is lost due to storage problems.

The quality of grains and cereals can be affected by several factors during storage, such as humidity, temperature, presence of pests and contamination by microorganisms. Therefore, it is essential to adopt proper storage practices to ensure the integrity and safety of these products.

Field Storage Challenges

Farmers face several challenges when storing grains and cereals in the field. Some of the main obstacles include:

  1. Humidity and temperature control: Inadequate humidity and temperature can lead to the proliferation of fungi, bacteria and insects, compromising the quality of grains and cereals. It is essential to monitor and control these conditions to ensure food safety.
  2. Pest protection: Insects, rodents and birds can cause significant damage to stored grains and cereals. Preventive and corrective measures must be taken to avoid infestation by these pests.
  3. Storage space: Lack of adequate storage space can lead to financial losses and food waste. Producers need efficient and scalable solutions to meet their storage needs.
  4. Maintenance and cleaning: Maintenance and cleaning of storage systems are essential to ensure the quality and safety of grains and cereals. Producers must invest in equipment and practices that facilitate these processes.
