Season 4, Ep. 9 – How should I factor on-farm grain storage into my marketing plan?

On-farm grain storage gives farmers another option at harvest, but it also adds a few more factors to consider in a risk management plan. For farmers considering expanding their on-farm storage capacity, what specifically should they be factoring into that decision? What technological advancements in grain storage are making an economic impact? What do farmers need to assess for their grain marketing plan? Dr. Ken Hellevang, a professor and extension engineer in the Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering at North Dakota State University, joins us to answer these questions in part two of this conversation.
