Can you solve this puzzle for a small STEEM prize?

A man is travelling with a wolf, a chicken, and a bag of grain. He needs to get across a river. He has one boat to take them all across. He can only take one at a time. He cant leave the wolf alone with chicken or the chicken alone with grain. How can he cross the river?

There is a grand prize of 0.005 STEEM for the winner and three 0.001 STEEM runner up prizes.

The winner is the first correct answer. After 7 days the runners up will be randomly selected. I will use a random number generator and assign numbers to all correct answers and the three chosen will win (It's a small prize but mainly just for fun). After 7 days I post an answer/identify the correct answer and pay out the rewards.

Please optionally upvote if you like this post or give an answer, have fun!

I usually, but not always, get voting bots on my posts after a few days to allow people to earn curation rewards.

Take the chicken across, then take the wolf, then take the chicken back across with you, take the grain to the side with the wolf on it, then finally go back and take the chicken across. 

Alternatively you can switch the grain and wolf and it still works. Only if the chicken is first across.

First take the chicken to the other side of the river and leave it there and head back and then bring the wolf along the second time. While going back take the chicken with the man to bank A . Leave the chicken at bank A and take the grain to bank B . In the end go back to bank A and take the chicken to bank B. Now the man has all three on bank B and his objective is fulfilled.

If he takesa the chicken, the wolf will follow. If he has the capacity to bring one at a time,  that means he has e ough room to carry the chicken with the grain. Then he can most certainly bring the chicken and the grain at the same time. The wold will folllw in the water. Since kt wants the chicken.
