In China, the quantity of farmer’s grain storage covers about 40% of the total grain yield every year. While, the losses of farms’ grain storage are up to 8%, which is due to the lack of grain storage facility and technology. The losses of farmer’s grain storage could reach nearly 20 million tons every year. In this paper, the current situation and development of grain storage technology and facility for Chinese farmers were presented. And a series of policy and research work for reducing the losses of farms’ grain storage was introduced. The large scale farmers are now developing quickly in China, the new storage warehouse and mechanized facility should be developed adaptively. So, the new storage technology and policy to meet the need of large scale farmers were also introduced in this paper.

Farmer’s grain storage, storage facility, reduce loss.
