A bulk material cargo container system comprises an inflatable bulk material cargo container liner which has a plurality of inflatable air bags integrally incorporated therein. The inflatable air bags have substantially right triangular configurations when disposed in their inflated states such that hypotenuse portions of the inflatable air bags are inclined downwardly with respect to the bottom sur- face portion of the bulk material cargo container liner. In this manner, when the inflatable air bags are inflated in accordance with a predetermined sequential operation, the bulk material cargo load can be discharged from the bulk ma- terial cargo container liner without the need for tilting the bulk material cargo container and the liner contained therein. In addition, the bulk material cargo container, having the new and improved bulk material cargo container liner disposed therein, can be used as a silo or storage facility for the bulk cargo load material wherein the in- flatable air bags can be inflated to predetermined degrees so as to cause predetermined portions of the bulk cargo load material to be discharged as desired.
