Grain Storage Solutions Are
'In The Bag'
Charley Knabb
Blues travelers along legendary U.S. Highway 61 in the Mississippi Delta are always treated to numerous sights and sounds as they travel through the land of cotton. During the last two years, however, the new attractions have little to do with the blues – and even less to do with cotton.
From Sikeston, Mo., to Vicksburg, Miss., turnrows once marked with rows of cotton modules in the fall are now lined with long, white plastic bags. Laid out like huge, mutant caterpillar larvae, they symbolize the fundamental truth about today's cotton industry.
The bags are filled with grain. Corn, soybeans, milo, wheat and even rice are stored within them and, though they have their critics, many say grain storage bags are a sight that cotton country should become accustomed to seeing.
