"Field peas and lupins stored at temperature of 35oC deteriorate at faster rate compared to high moisture content grains stored at 27oC. Grains stored at 20oC at 13% and 14% moisture content for lupins and field peas are ideal for storage with no loss in grain viability and mould growths during 10 months storage period (Cassells and Armstrong, 1998). Brown beans can be stored safely as long as 370 weeks at low moisture content (11 %) and low storage temperature (5oC), whereas grains stored at high moisture (23 %) and storage temperature (25oC) may last less than a week." http://www.grainscanada.gc.ca/storageentrepose/aafc-aac/pfsg-pgef-8-eng.htm |
