streszczenie The author presents the results of studies on the temperature and horizontal pressure of triticale grain in a model silo. The studies included grain with an initial moisture content of 13, 16 and 18% w.b. The grain storage duration was 25 days. The study showed that grain temperature is affected by its initial moisture content. The highest temperature values were observed in grain with an initial moisture content of 18% w.b. Also, a higher initial moisture content results in greater increases in pressure.
