Sesame seeds are small, high oil content, and difficult to remove impurities, it is easy to absorb moisture and heat, and become rancid. Therefore, the storage of sesame should strictly control the content of water and impurities. Practice has proved that bulk sesame has a moisture content of less than 7.5 percent and impurities no more than 1%, and it can generally be stored safely. The moisture content is 5% to 8% at 7 o'clock. Although in winter, it can only be stored for a short time. Sesame seeds with moisture and impurity content within the safety standards should be sealed in bulk. The quality of sesame stored in airtight storage has little change, and the oil yield is higher than that of sesame stored in ventilation.
The safe storage of sesame mainly depends on moisture and temperature. According to experience, the moisture content of sesame seeds is below 7%, the impurities do not exceed 1%, the pile height is 2 meters, and the grain temperature is low, and the summer can be safely passed; when the moisture does not exceed 8%, it can be stored for short-term in autumn and winter. But after the beginning of spring, we should pay attention to precipitation. However, the moisture content of seed sesame must be below 7%, and the grain temperature should be below 25℃, and the highest temperature should not exceed 30℃.
Sesame is prone to damages from moths such as Indian grain moths and mealy moths, and pests such as book lice and mites.
