Abstract
The storage process, in some way, has a direct influence on the production and status of the derived final product. It was possible to verify in this case study that the storage system of the company is deficient, needing improvements, especially when entering the raw material for production. Such problems, such as impurities, broken and burned grains, are generated in the warehouse itself, due to lack of prudence and coordination. Findings that contradict the objective of storage that is the conservation of the particularities of the grains and that may detract from the attributes of the end product in terms of taste, physical and chemical characteristics and visual conditions. Among the possible causes of the disturbances are the lack of maintenance of the machines, inefficient aeration and thermometry gauging. As a suggestion, besides the improvements on the mentioned problems, the implantation of management and strategy of inventories, of programs and quality control, development of the producing agents, planning and methods of solution of problems. The decline in the quality of the raw material, corn, can result in chain effect, damaging the final product, thus damaging the financial results of the organization.

Summary
Quando da análise das cadeias produtivas, é preciso visualizar os pormenores de cada fase, de forma que a jusante sempre se tenha o melhor produto, contribuindo para profissionalização dos agentes e suas atividades, logo, rendimentos maiores. Especificamente no agronegócio e cadeias produtivas de grãos, o propósito da armazenagem é guardar matérias primas por determinado período de tempo, mantendo suas características e composição físico química, como carboidratos, proteínas, fibras e vitaminas, o mais próximo do estado natural, minimizando ou evitando perda do poder germinativo, vigor das sementes e qualidade, até que seja requisitado para utilização (PUZZI, 2000; ALENCAR et al, 2002). Paes (2006) e Elias (2002) concordam entre si e complementam, dizendo que os grãos e sementes devem ser secos e armazenados em ambiente apropriado para a manutenção da sua qualidade, que depende da espécie e variedade, condições ambientais na lavoura, época e método de colheita, processo de secagem e práticas de armazenamento. Isto se repetirá até que se atinja o limite de armazenagem do silo
