Abstract
In the work, the terms and modes of sunflower storage were determined. The state of sown areas and the yield of oilseeds have been analyzed. It has been established that sunflower seeds with a moisture content of no more than 7.0% and an infestation of no more than 2.0% should be laid for long-term storage. It was revealed that for temporary storage (for a period of up to 1 month) - sunflower seeds with a moisture content of no more than 9.0% and an infestation of no more than 3.0%, provided they are actively ventilated. Sunflower seeds with a moisture content of more than 7.0% should be stored at currents for no more than 1 day. The norms of natural loss of sunflower seeds during storage have been studied; they depend on the variety, method and period (3, 6 months and 1 year) of storage of batches of sunflower seeds. It is proposed to consider that the guaranteed shelf life of sunflower seeds is six months from the date of storage. After the expiration of the guaranteed storage period, the quality of the seeds must be checked for compliance with the standard; in case of positive results of the analysis, the storage period is extended.
