Abstract
A portable storage bin having a capacity of about 50 metric tons of grain is located at a field during the harvesting of grain from the field. The combines empty their hoppers into grain carts, each grain cart having a capacity of 10 metric tons. If a truck to carry the grain to the elevator is available, the grain carts discharge the grain directly into the truck. However, if a truck is not presently available, the grain carts discharge their grain into the storage bin. When a truck becomes available to pick up the grain to carry it to the elevator, it may be loaded from the storage bin or from the grain carts as capacity is available.
