Brief Project Summary:

Soybean production in Mississippi is likely to increase and many soybean producers may not have no-farm storage capacity required for the increased production. Some producers may be interested in alternative soybean storage systems such as polyethylene grain bags. At present there are no guidelines for using these grain bags. Therefore, this study will measure the storage conditions within the grain bag and to assess its effect on grain quality.

Final Project Results

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
