Abstract

Silobag is an ad-hoc low-cost storage technique that consists in keeping the grains into hermetic polyethylene bags which are stored in the same field of crop (on-farm). It is likely that several million tons of grain will be stored in harvest bags within the next years, in Latin American countries and also in other parts of the world. Research confirms that although silobags have some limitations, they offer to growers a relatively cheap and reliable grain storage solution. In this paper we present a low-cost wireless software system for monitoring and adapting the internal conditions of the grain stored into silobags in order to improve their preservation state. This system is addressed to small and medium growers and it was developed using modern techniques of software engineering.
