We had saved up all the old "chilled shot" bags from all the shotsehll loading we did in the past. Mom is a sewer extrordinairre, and we filled a whole batch of those bags with soybeans. Not nearly so heavy and cumbersome as sand filled. Our old wives tail on storage of beans was if there was wheat or any other small grain within 20 miles, bugs/weevils would get it before soys. I was always of he opinion rice was a small grain and very susceptible to weevil infestation.
Just my two pesos
