How silo design influences grain logistics

Grain storage is often seen as a final stage in the post-harvest chain, a place where product simply remains protected until its next movement. However, in high-capacity facilities, this view is too limited. A silo does not only preserve grain. It also determines how product is received, moved, controlled and discharged. For this reason, silo […]

From traditional storage to industrial scale: a shift shaping Africa

In recent years, much has been said about post-harvest losses in Africa, and for good reason. Estimates suggest that more than 30% of grain production is lost due to inadequate storage, impacting both food security and farmers’ incomes. But today, the conversation is evolving. Africa is no longer at the stage of identifying the problem. […]

Types of Grain Silos: Choosing the Right Solution Beyond Capacity

Not all silos are defined by size. Their function is key to achieving efficient grain storage.   When discussing grain storage, capacity is often the first parameter that comes to mind. However, in real projects, choosing the right type of silo goes far beyond volume. Operational efficiency, grain flow, discharge frequency, and integration with handling […]

The new feed mill in Mizil is now operational

A few months ago we shared the beginning of this project in Mizil, Romania. Today, the installation has been successfully completed and the plant is now fully operational. This project has been developed by MGN -Maquinaria Grupo Nueve for the client Dutch Trading, within the framework of a modern feed production plant promoted by Dutch […]

How to calculate the capacity of a grain silo

How many tonnes of grain can a silo actually store? Storage capacity is one of the most important factors when designing a grain storage facility. Knowing how many tonnes of grain a silo can hold allows operators to properly plan harvest logistics, optimize the use of space and ensure efficient storage management. Although it may […]

Eurocode vs ANSI: Which Standard Should You Choose for a Silo Project?

When planning a grain storage project, one question often arises: Is it better to design silos according to Eurocode or ANSI? At first glance, this may seem like a purely technical decision reserved for engineers. In reality, however, it directly affects safety, durability, and long-term peace of mind.   Two Different Approaches to Structural Safety […]

Types of Cereals: How to Choose the Ideal Silo for Their Storage

In previous publications, we have analyzed in detail the specific storage requirements of grains such as maize and wheat in real projects. On this occasion, we provide a broader overview: what types of cereals exist and how to select the most suitable silo for their efficient and safe storage. Grain storage is a critical stage […]
