ABSTRACT:
A container for receiving and retaining loose bulk grain from point of harvest to destination comprises a generally rectangular box-like receptacle having side and end walls, a bottom wall, and an open upper end with a closure. First airflow port means is provided in at least one side wall and second airflow port means is provided in an end wall. Bulk grain is loaded into a multitude of such containers and the closures are secured in place. A fan is connected to one of the port means to force a stream of atmospheric air in through one port means and out through the other, the air flowing through substantially all of the body of grain in the receptacle and removing a excess moisture. The grain is stored in the receptacles as long as necessary and then shipped in the original receptacles to any desired location for processing. Means are provided to interlock groups of containers on the transport means to prevent any inadvertent displacement of individual containers.
