W. aResearch of farm drying and storage of sorghum grain.h[electronic resource] aTexas: TAESc1957 a23 p. a(TAES. Bulletin, 885). aResearch was conducted by the Texas Agricultural Station and the U.S. Department of Agriculture at Substation No.1 near Beeville during 7 crop years (1949-50) through 1855-56) to develop methods and procedures for on-the-farm drying and storage of sorghum grain in South Texas. High moisture and excessive trash (stems, leaves and grass seed) lead to insect, mold and heat damage, and are the basis for most of the troubles encoutered in storing grain. High moisture may result from the leakage of outside moisture through bin walls or from the placing of high-moisture grain in storage. A tight structure for protecting the grain from the weather, insects and rodents was found to be essential. Properly constructed conventional wood or steel buildings and bins, and a cement plaster bin painted with a water-proofing paint and provided with adequate ventilation at the grain surface, were satisfactory for storing sorghum grain.
