Bizon will keep the grain in stock
Bizon Company packs the grain in vacuum tanks for its experimental farms. In those big polymer pockets the crop of 2009 will stay till optimal market price is fixed.
— “At harvest time transport and logistics services become groundlessly expensive but the price for the grain becomes down on the contrary” — said Vladimir Klimenko, responsible for the agricultural department of Bizon Company. — “We’ll keep the wheat till winter or spring and sell it for the best price saving at transportation and storage services.
Bizon has already confirmed the effectiveness of the new technology. During 8 months over 5000 tones of previous crop were kept in the open air in 200 tones capacity tanks.
— “Thank to absolute air tightness these tube-pockets are proof against water, oxygen, sun rays and UV light”, — said Alexander Garmashev, leading agrotechnologist of Bizon. — “Insects and fungus were destructed. Bletting went by. There are no losses.”
The expenses are 7 times less than traditional storage at elevator. The grain was sold at the best price. So even during financial crisis Bizon’s farms gave high profitability.
