Welcome to the revised 2025 version of The drying and storage of grain and herbage seed, first published in 1999. The book comprises six chapters that cover grain characteristics and their reaction to climate, the importance of seed moisture, the drying system, the storage environment, storage pests and their control, and construction considerations. These have been edited and updated by FAR staff and independent experts from the original chapters written by the late Murray Hill.
This second edition provides valuable New Zealand specific information on grain and seed handling and storage and is a must for all arable growers and industry personnel involved in the drying or storage of grain and seed crops. I hope that you will find the book a valuable resource to support your production of high-quality crops.
