Grain temperature control system | Proposals for labor reduction and efficiency improvement
Proper temperature control is essential to maintaining the quality of grains.
In particular, by monitoring temperature changes inside the silo, the risk of quality deterioration and pest infestation can be reduced.
Chino's grain temperature control system enables real-time temperature monitoring and efficient data management, helping to reduce labor and improve business efficiency.
In addition, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries has issued guidelines for producers who dry, process and store rice, which highlight the importance of grain temperature control.

The importance of grain temperature control
Grains are easily affected by temperature and humidity during storage.
Therefore, if not properly managed, the following risks may occur:
- The quality is reduced
- Pests occur
- Grains heat up and mold grows
These risks increase, especially as temperatures rise within the silo.
That's why regular temperature monitoring is so important.
Benefits of using grain temperature control systems:
- Detect temperature abnormalities in advance to avoid risks
- Realizing safe, high-quality grain storage
By introducing this system, it is possible to create an environment in which grains can be stored with peace of mind.
