Remember to check your grain in storage – often

Regardless of the year, it is critical that operators pay attention to temperature or moisture content increases in stored grains or oilseeds

Shortly after I went on staff at the then Western Ontario Agricultural School at Ridgetown in 1964, I started talking about grain drying and storage. My colleague Ralph Clayton and I actually started an elevator operator’s course in 1967.

So what has changed? Primarily, my hair colour and the people who are operating elevators and on-farm grain drying/storage systems.
