Dirk Maier and Sam Cook are post-harvest engineers with the Iowa Grain Quality Initiative at Iowa State University. Their research project, ‘Grain Operations: Fumigating stored grain in sealed silos’, “evaluated the viability of using sealed grain silo technology to achieve successful fumigations, maintain grain quality, and control insects without building up PH3 resistance.”
The article was recently published by World Grain and noted that “With properly sealed storage silos of any size, fumigation treatments work more effectively and with substantially lower costs.”
