Farm Silo

A successful harvest is not finished when grain leaves the field. Proper storage determines whether that grain keeps its quality and market value.

COBAN Farm Silo is a galvanized steel grain storage solution designed for farms, grain traders, rice mills, and agricultural processing companies. Our steel farm silos help protect stored grain from moisture, insects, temperature changes, and quality loss.

With capacities from 30 tons to 20,000+ tons, COBAN provides customized farm grain storage silos for corn, wheat, rice, soybean, barley, sorghum, and other agricultural products.

Why Choose a Steel Farm Silo?

Traditional storage methods such as warehouses or grain bags often create problems:

• High grain loss during long-term storage
• Difficult moisture control
• Increased labor requirements
• Limited storage capacity
• Poor inventory management

A modern farm grain silo provides a cleaner and more controlled storage environment.

What Is a Farm Silo?

A farm silo is a galvanized steel structure designed for storing bulk agricultural materials under controlled conditions.

Unlike simple warehouses, a steel grain silo for farms integrates:

• Strong galvanized steel structure
• Aeration system
• Temperature monitoring
• Grain handling equipment
• Automatic unloading system

It is widely used for:

• Corn (Maize)
• Wheat
• Paddy
• Rice
• Soybean
• Barley
• Sorghum
• Feed pellets
• Coffee beans

COBAN Farm Silo Advantages

Heavy-Duty Galvanized Steel Structure

COBAN farm silos use hot-dip galvanized corrugated steel plates with excellent corrosion resistance.

Main advantages:

• Zinc coating: Z275-Z600 g/m²
• Suitable for humid and tropical climates
• Strong resistance to rain and corrosion
• Long service life with proper maintenance

The corrugated wall design improves strength while reducing unnecessary steel consumption.

Designed According to Local Conditions

Every storage project is different.

COBAN engineers consider:

• Grain type
• Storage capacity
• Storage period
• Local humidity
• Wind speed
• Seismic requirements
• Foundation conditions

This ensures the silo performs reliably in different regions, including Africa, Southeast Asia, South America, and the Middle East.

Better Grain Protection with Aeration System

Maintaining stable grain conditions is essential for long-term storage.

A complete silo can include:

• Aeration fans
• Air ducts
• Roof ventilation
• Temperature cables
• Automatic control system

The system helps:

• Reduce moisture accumulation
• Prevent mold growth
• Control grain temperature
• Extend storage time
