Proper
Management
Can Prevent
Grain Damage
GOLDENVALLEY,
Minn. Improperly
adjusted combines, wet
weather, and molds at
harvest can all come
back to haunt corn
growers with on-farm
grain storage.
Mechanical damage
to grain causes specific
storage problems while
also acting as a catalyst
to molds and fungi,
according to Fran Mar
ier, Northrup King Co.
agronomist.
Broken kernels may
cause more tightly
packed bins as fines fill
air spaces. This ham
pers air movement dur
ing drying and cooling,
leaving pockets of wet
grain and hot spots in
the bin.
Marier said broken
kernels also prompt an
invasion of mold and
fungi in two important
ways. First, damage to
the kernel provides an
entry point for infec
tion. In addition, the
pathogens causing mold
thrive in the moisture
and heat generated by
the pockets of fines.
Marier also cautions
growers to be on the
lookout for ear molds
this fall, especially in
fields which received
excessive moisture in
September.
Corn growers can
minimize mechanical
damage to grain during
harvest by monitoring
and adjusting combine
cylinder speed and con
cave settings when
moving from one
hybrid to another.
Before growers put
the crop into a bin, the
Northrup King agro
nomist recommends
screening the grain,
removing as much mold
and as many fines as
possible. After filling,
he said some growers
remove a load of grain
from the bin to draw out
fines and broken ker
nels which tend to fall
to the center.
