Synopsis

Excerpt from An Economic Study of Rough Rice Storage in the Southern States

An approximation of storage costs and returns separate from the other enterprises conducted by the businesses studied indicated that rough rice storage Operations were usually conducted on a cost-covering or service basis in order to obtain the income from the more profitable enterprises such as rice drying. Unit costs averaged about 13 cents per hundredweight of rough rice stored and the net income was 1 cent per hundredweight.

In comparison to bulk storage and handling, seed rice had additional costs of about per hundredweight stored. These extra costs were for more careful drying to prevent contamination, labor for sacking, costs of sacks, and expenses for seed cleaning and treatment.
