Grain crimping was invented over 50 years ago

Grain crimping was invented in autumn 1969 in the farm of Aimo and Gunnar Korte in Ylivieska, Finland. Their grain dryer had broken, but the brothers were aware that high moisture grains could be ensiled, but it should have been crimped first. This method was made famous by a Finnish Nobel winning chemist Artturi Ilmari Virtanen a couple of decades earlier, but it was usually used for hay silage. There were no crimping machines available at that time, so they decided to construct one on their own. The first roller mill was made together with a neighbour farm. This is how the company Aimo Kortteen Konepaja Oy started.
