Lots of good things from posters about their survival skills concernng "tips" for methods of stalwart strength. I am particulary impressed that one poster drags a cart load of 50,000 primers all over the forum to prove his skills is one known example. This thread is not about bs, however. This thread is about how to store your dried food and grains in a reasonable way so that you are seriously prepared for a disaster.
One of the best approaches to food storage is to lower the temperature and ensure extraction of moisture/water + any oxygen content from food packages you intend to within; to ensure adequate capability of over 40 years storage life.
As an example, assuming you want to store lima beans, perform the following approach: lower the surrounding temperature of the air-tight container to about 50 degrees F. Ensure you have plenty of oxygen absorbers adequate for any standing air within the container and seal the container to ensure no liquids or air are in contact with the lima beans.
Think about it: forty years or more of food storage, right within your own familie's reach! And you don't have to drag around a pile of defunct 50,000 primers to prove you have survival skills!
