3.8 Conclusions This chapter provided a brief overview of grain storage facilities and discussed major types of grain storage, structural aspects of grain storage options, handling of grain, maintaining quality during storage, hazards, and storage capacities in elevators and on farms in the United States. Each of these important topics is discussed in depth in subsequent chapters, with special. WCMD has launched a new interactive dashboard to view US Warehouse Act licensed facilities as well as approved warehouses under a CCC Storage Agreement.
For questions about this new resource, or to report any errors with the data, please contact AMS.WCMD.Operations@usda.gov. When a warehouse is approved, CCC adds the warehouse to a List of Approved Warehouses which is provided to local FSA. Grain system designs are complex.
