Storage systems for onions and garlic
Storage systems for onions and garlic. Storage in bulk
The simplest and cheapest way to store onions is in piles (in bulk, in bulk).
With this storage system, more products can be stored per square meter than with other types of storage.
This system is best suited for storing hard onions.
There are several solutions for storage in bulk:
Floor ventilation with halfround ducts
Due to the gradual narrowing of the duct, uniform air distribution is achieved throughout the volume (pile) of the product. The distance between the ducts is equal to the height of the bulk to ensure optimal air distribution.
Аdvantages:
- easy to assemble;
- easy to clean at the end of the storage season.
Underfloor ventilation with grid floor or ducts
A fully grid floor promotes more optimal air distribution within the product, as ventilation is carried out over the entire area. But such a system requires much more investment than the rest.
Аdvantages:
- optimal air distribution throughout the entire thickness of the product.
