Grow Your Grain Packaging with Nichrome
Cereals are the fruits of domestically cultivated grasses. The major cereal crops are wheat, barley, oats, rye, rice, maize, sorghum and millets. Cereals have been the staple crops from prehistoric times and their effective production, storage and use have been significant contributors to the blossoming of modern civilization. Cereal grains and related products have become an important part of the diet in many countries. Every year, new cereal-based products are developed and sold to considerably well-informed consumers. Over two billion tonnes of grains are produced annually across the world. These grains are stored in different parts of the grain distribution chain from the producer to the consumer. They are packed in properly defined Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) such as bags, silos, warehouses, containers and even in stacks on the ground. Crops are harvested at the culmination of the growing season, and the harvested grain needs to be stored with negligible loss of quality until it is required for human or animal consumption during the rest of the year. Reasons for storing grains are:
Processing is done at a different location from the production Seasonal production but year-round consumption
