New Storage Bags - Emily Klein


Delta Grain Bag Systems introduced a new polyethylene grain storage bags. It allows producers to store grain temporarily for an average cost of $.07 per bushel. The bag is filled with a specially made bag filling machine that can be used from the combine or the grain cart to load up to seven thousand bushels of grain per hour. A study at Texas A&M showed that grain stored in the bags for five months did not change the quality of the grain. The bagger is priced at $18,000. The one-time use bags start at the cost of $700.
