Storage

STORAGE

Follow the procedure QA-NFOS-SOP2 "Storage and stock management of food".

Preparing for storage

  • Staple foods should be stored separately from therapeutic foods to prevent any risk of crosscontamination.
  • Warehouses (walls, floor, etc.) should be given preventive treatment against insects and rodents before warehousing.
  • It is essential to check that the roof is watertight before the rainy season.

Storage organization

  • On pallets arranged in 6 to 8 pallet islands
  • Islands at least 1 m apart
  • At least 0.5 m from the walls
  • No more than 2 m high

Inventory monitoring

  • PREVENTION
    • Given storage conditions in the field, it is recommended not storing for more than 6 months
    • Spraying of insecticide (CWATIIRSSC-) should be repeated every 8 to 12 weeks, when stocks are empty
    • Warehouse ventilation should be controlled to minimize ambient humidity
    • Inventory should be regularly organized (every 2 weeks), randomly testing bags to check for infestation and inspecting warehouse to monitor anti-insect and anti-rodent prevention measures
  • TREATMENT

In case of infestation, peas may be fumigated by a certified company (often with phosphine or "phostoxin"). Require a fumigation certificate.

Procedures for Quality Control
