The primary objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of detecting a hot spot
primarily due tospoilage of high moisture corn in a stored grain bulk with a CO2 sensor …

Grain moisture content (MC) and temperature (T) are the primary factors affecting grain
deterioration in storage. If these factors are not properly monitored and controlled, grain …

Following harvest, corn raised for grain is subject to infection and deterioration due to
storage fungi. Laboratorystorage studies done on yellow dent corn in the 1960s established …

Machine vision algorithms were developed for measuring corn (Zea mays) kernel
mechanical damage andmold damage. Mechanical damage was determined using both …

The effect of mechanical damage on corn (Zea mays) storability as determined by carbon
dioxide productionand dry matter loss (DML) caused by fungi was quantified. Corn …

A computer vision system was developed for evaluation of the total damage factor used in
corn grading. Majorcategories of corn damage in the Midwestern US grain market were …

Deterioration rates as indicated by carbon dioxide evolution for soya bean (Glycine max L.
Merr.) stored under changing temperature conditions were quantified and compared with …

Long term storage of corn is becoming more common due to the recent increase in the
demand for corn by ethanol plants. Infection of maize kernels by toxigenic fungi remains a …

This article reports the relationship between dry matter loss (DML) and corn (Zea mays)
quality as indicatedby total damaged kernels (DKT). The level of DKT for a given level of …

A respiration measurement system was designed, fabricated and tested to estimate dry
matter loss (DML) of soybeans through monitoring carbon dioxide (CO2) from grain …
