Yo peeps... is the price of feed rising or is it the inflation of our dollar after trillions given away to buy votes?

You can store whole grains for decades. Pellets and mash will have soybean or other oil seeds that are milled and crushed so it will go rancid if you keep it around too long.

Do you need O2 reducers to store whole grains long term?

You shouldn't if you freeze the grain for a week to kill off any eggs in the grain. Must have tight fitting lids to prevent new bugs from finding the grain and ruining it. Metal barrels, not plastic, tight fitting lids, and duct tape just to be sure. I have had corn stored in Home Depot five gallon buckets for about ten years with no problem.
