Grain Storage in Bags:
  • Flexible technology for storing dry and wet grain, fertilizer, industrial by-products, wood pellets, and other bulk goods.
  • High performance up to 300 t/h for dry grain.
  • Short amortization time and low investment costs (5 €/t for storage and unloading).
Importance of Short-term Storage:
  • Short-term storage capacity is crucial due to price fluctuations in the cereals market.
  • Conventional storage costs range from 100 to 250 €/t, while 6-month storage at a country store costs about 20 €/t.
  • Protection against moisture and contamination is essential to prevent deterioration.
Storage Experiment:
  • Tarso wheat with 10.9% moisture content was stored in silage bags.
  • Two silage bags were used, with temperature profiles monitored using data loggers.
  • Sampling was conducted at various intervals to analyze dry matter content, pH-value, starch, crude protein, and microbial content.
Results:
  • Temperature profiles in silage bags showed low microbiological activity.
  • Chemical and microbial parameters remained stable, with no significant changes in crude protein, starch, or pH-value.
  • Germination characteristics were within reference values.
Cost Analysis:
  • Investment costs for the grain bagger are approximately 15,000 €, with machine costs decreasing with increased efficiency.
  • A silage bag can store about 250 t, with costs of about 3 to 4 €/t.
  • Annual costs for AKRON Grain Bagger: 6,025 €, and for AKRON Unloader: 8,108 €.
Conclusion:
  • Storing wheat in bags for up to six months is feasible without quality loss.
  • Silage bag storage is competitive with conventional grain storage in terms of labor, quality, and cost.

Storage of maize corn in the bag – alternative of drying. value, also the pH-value was unchanged and there was no detected increase of the investigated groups of microorganisms. The contents of the investigated groups of germination are in range of reference values for ground grain products of the DGHM (2007). Comparing the results of all storage methods, the average chemical and microbial results are very similar (Fig. 2). The substances crude protein and starch detected before storing did not change their Nearly similar temperature profiles could be identified in both silage bags: a gradual...

Grains storage in bags The process costs for using the grain bagger are made up of costs for machines, labour and bags. The investment costs depending on the equipment is at an average of 15.000 €. With an increasing efficiency machine costs will decrease. A silage bag with a diameter of  2,70 m and a length of 60 m can store about 250 t. The figures show that a machine can be amortized with a low tonnage in a short period of time with costs of about 3 to 4 €  /  t (Table 1). Conclusion To sum up, the practical experiment showed that wheat can be storege in bags up to six months without losses...
