GrainPro to address agri storage woes

The GrainPro portable granary, a reliable and quick-to-setup hermetic storage system was launched by Agri Genesis Lanka Pvt Ltd. This storage system addresses the multiple issues of the country's agricultural storage problems and woes.

The GrainPro portable granary or GrainPro cocoon is an ideal way to store all types of grains and seeds including paddy, corn, wheat and even herbs, spices, beans, lentils, coffee, cocoa, dried fruits, flour and nuts. Its hermetic storage preserves the germination potential of seeds for many months.

The cocoons are made of heavy duty, weather resistant and reinforced PVC, and, are resistant to gas, moisture, water and UV. They come in different sizes to suit varying needs-from 01 metric ton to 1000 metric tons. There are also the one ton grain safe and the smaller super grain bags.

General Manager of Agri Genesis Lanka Pvt Ltd Samud Gunesekara said that Sri Lanka produces around 2.6 Mn metric tons of paddy during the Maha season and 1.7 Mn metric tons during the Yala season. This amounts to 4.3 million MT annually. Records indicate that around 15 to 20 percent of paddy perishes annually due to poor storage.
