Problem No. 39: Warehouse curing for urea granules
Good storage and housekeeping practices are always important to ensure a safe workplace. Where possible, fertilizers should be stored in closed storage to protect the product from the weather (sun, rain etc.). The ideal storage conditions are:
- Enclosed building capable of protecting the product from the weather and sunlight
- Temperature between 5 and 50°C
- Protect the fertilizer from moisture, which can cause lumps and dust, affecting spreading capabilities
- Good stock management e.g. carried out on a first in first out basis.
