How long can grain be stored?

The duration for which grain can be safely stored depends on factors like moisture content, temperature, and storage conditions. Properly dried grain, stored at optimal moisture levels (around 13-14% for most grains) and in well-ventilated, cool conditions, can be stored for a year or more. However, grains with higher moisture content or stored in less than ideal conditions may have a shorter shelf life due to risks of spoilage and pest infestations. 

With proper grain monitoring and ensuring optimal moisture levels for grain storage, using aeration to keep the grain cool, you can maximize the storage life of grain. AgroLog offers a Grain Bin Monitoring system, providing real-time data on temperature and moisture levels within the bin, which are crucial for preventing spoilage and maintaining grain quality.

Regular monitoring and management of storage conditions are essential to maximize the storage life of grain. Read more about AgroLog Grain Bin Monitoring.
