A. Bag storage

♤ Each bag contains a definite quantity, which can be bought, sold or dispatched without difficulty.

♤ Bags are easier to load or unload.

♤ It is easier to keep separate lots with identification marks on the bags.

♤ The bags which are identified as infested on inspection can be removed and treated easily; and

♤ The problem of the sweating of grains does not arise because the surface of the bag is exposed to the atmospheres.
