Cool Down Grain To Avoid Spoilage

 Cool Down Grain To Avoid Spoilage
 
While this year's crop may be coming off the field dry, it'll still be important to cool it down.
 
That from Dr. Joy Agnew, Program Manager of Agricultural Research Services with the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute (PAMI).
 
She said the goal is to cool the grain down to 15 degrees Celsius.
 
"Depending on the grain type, the target moisture for safe storage is different. But as long as it's dry, for whatever grain that is, 15 degrees Celsius or lower is the target temperature."
