"Some big percentage of DC workers are still not going to the office" Zoom and all their files are just a click of the mouse away. Think of all the CO2 they've saved. == "Why do we need 3,000 USDA Grain Inspectors?" We produced over 49 M metric tons of grain in '23-24. We prolly need more of them. Q: What Are the Duties of a Grain Inspector? (ziprecruiter.com) The duties of a grain inspector include inspecting containers, trucks, and railcars to ensure they meet requirements for carrying grain, ensuring they do not have leaks, infestations, or other issues. You are in charge of quality control and take samples of each grain load and test it using federal grain inspection procedures outlined by the Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS) and Agricultural Marketing Act (AMA). Other responsibilities include preparing for grading by running a number of tests and awarding each load with a corresponding grade based on moisture content, weight, and foreign material presence. Other tests may be required such as for measuring mycotoxins, proteins and oil, and more. You document all tests that you run and keep a record of all results and grades.
