[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an environmentally friendly green grain storage method, comprising the following steps:

[0006] S1. After the grain is mature, it is harvested according to normal procedures. After the harvest is completed, the grain is screened;

[0007] S2. Use physical means to control pests, reduce environmental pollution, and will not affect human health;

[0008] S3, drying the grains, using natural wind to reduce the moisture content of the grains, to achieve the effect of preventing mildew and insects;

[0009] S4. Load the grain into storage containers, then centrally load the storage containers with grain into storage facilities, and utilize natural temperature changes to store the grain. During the storage process, the condition of the grain should be checked regularly.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the grain harvesting in S1 should be carried out at an appropriate time to ensure the quality of the grain; harvesting too early will cause the grain to be immature, while harvesting too late may cause the grain to be over-mature or fall; the combine harvester can complete the harvesting, threshing and cleaning processes at the same time.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, after the grain is harvested, the grain needs to be screened, and the method for screening the grain includes the following steps:

[0012] Step 1: Use wind power to separate light impurities and empty grains from the grains. Under the action of wind power, the full grains fall down due to their heavy weight, while the light impurities and empty grains are blown away by the wind.

[0013] Step 2: Then use screening equipment to screen the grain according to its size and shape, while removing small stones, soil clods and broken grain impurities;

[0014] Step 3: Use a color sorter to screen the grains according to their color, remove grains of different colors and moldy grains, and improve the purity and quality of the grains;

[0015] Step 4: Adjust the vibration frequency and amplitude of the screening equipment and use the weight difference of the grain to screen and remove heavy impurities and empty grains.

[0016] As preferred embodiments of the present invention, the specific measures for controlling pests include: manual killing, trapping, temperature treatment, isolation and ultraviolet treatment;

Good ventilation can help adjust the temperature and humidity of the storage environment, eliminate carbon dioxide and heat produced by food metabolism, and replenish fresh air at the same time; and storage facilities should take measures to prevent the invasion of pests and microorganisms, such as using insect-proof nets, sealing doors and windows, and regular disinfection.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the condition of grain is regularly checked including temperature, humidity, pests and mildew, problems are discovered and dealt with in a timely manner, and storage facilities are regularly cleaned and maintained, including cleaning dust, checking the operating condition of equipment, and replacing damaged parts, which helps to extend the service life of the facilities and ensure the stability of the storage environment.

[0027] In summary, the present invention also discloses an environmentally friendly green grain storage system, which is characterized by comprising a harvesting and screening module, a pest control module, a drying module and a storage module;

[0028] The harvesting and screening module harvests the grains according to normal procedures after they are ripe, and screens the grains after the harvesting is completed;

[0029] The pest control module uses physical means to control pests, reducing pollution to the environment and not affecting human health;

[0030] The drying module dries the grains and reduces the moisture content of the grains through natural wind, thereby achieving the effect of preventing mold and insects;

[0031] The storage module loads the grain into storage containers, and then centrally loads the storage containers with grain into storage facilities, and utilizes natural temperature changes to store the grain. During the storage process, the condition of the grain should be checked regularly.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0033] The present invention ensures the purity and quality of grains by screening them, and avoids environmental pollution by physically controlling pests, and does not affect human health. The method dries grains naturally, and does not require any chemicals, is harmless to the environment and human body, and is highly environmentally friendly.

Then, the overall quality of the grains is improved by artificial killing, trapping, and temperature control.

[0065] Then, through physical means such as artificial killing, trapping, temperature treatment, isolation and ultraviolet treatment, pests are controlled to reduce pollution to the storage environment.
