Silos Advantages

1. Requires Lesser Ground Space

Being vertical and very tall structures as compared to other grain storage options, silos hold the footprint on land is considerably smaller. It obviates the necessary spending on land and hence is a better option. Even if the land is already available – it can be used for other purposes.

2. Greater Control

Centralized storage of grains at one location imparts greater control over conditions more effectively. It facilitates grain storage at a certain temperature free from insects and other pests thus maintaining the grain in an optimal condition over a longer time. Aeration in a tightly sealed silo is also a simple, straightforward step to ensure minimum pests.

3. Convenient Loading & Depositing

It’s also easier to collect and transport grain to and from a silo. Not only is it there a severe cut in costs but its also more efficient as compared to other alternatives. A relatively inexpensive grain vacuum/ auger, for example, enables grain to be filled/taken out rapidly reducing costs.

4. Reliable Longevity

Apart from being cost-effective, a  well maintained, air-tight grain silo lasts several decades bringing down the effective costs of ownership. It also offers the ideal conditions for grain storage throughout this period. Many silos last more than  25  years before necessitating major repairs.

Vertical and Horizontal Silo – Bulk Storage


Storage silos are containers used for storage of bulk stock. These bulk storage silo systems are used for both short-term storages as well as for long-term storage of food products. Grain Storage Silos are cylindrical in shape and are made up of high-quality galvanized steel. Silos used for short-term bulk grain storage have conical bottom whereas the ones used for long-term storage have a flat bottom to provide the cleanup screw for the discharge purposes. Farmers that store their harvested crops in silos experience improved food security, greater consistency in grain quality, and reduced waste that leads to enhanced agricultural income.  As India’s leading rice mill plant consultants – Nextech solutions, also offer storage silos solutions that prove to be the most efficient and effective and protect the grains from being spoiled by rain and pest infestation.

Vertical Silo

The vertical silos are either circular or orthogonal in shape. The customizable diverging funnel flow at the bottom of a vertical silo enables it to handle any type of load. Stainless steel, concrete, and carbon steel plates are the most common materials that are used in the fabrication of vertical silos. The material you choose depends on the weather in your area. The common features of vertical silos include:

  • Safety Valve for pressure control
  • Silo level blade indicator
  • Blowing plant with a nozzle
  • Service platform with ladder, back guard and safety guard

Storage silo capacity of vertical silo is around 50-70 tonnes. They have higher capacity when compared to horizontal silos.

Raw Paddy Drying Solutions by Nextech

By “drying” is meant the phase of the post-harvest system during which the product is rapidly dehydrated to a so-called “backup” moisture. This desiccation is intended to sufficiently reduce the moisture content of the grain to ensure favorable conditions for storage or subsequent processing of the product.

By “drying” is meant the phase of the post-harvest system during which the product is rapidly dehydrated to a so-called “backup” moisture. This desiccation is intended to sufficiently reduce the moisture content of the grain to ensure favorable conditions for storage or subsequent processing of the product.

It is possible to obtain the drying of the products by circulating more or less hot air in a mass of grains. In its movement, the air gives heat to the grains, absorbing moisture from the most superficial layers.

The water present in the surface layers of the grains evaporates much more efficiently and more rapidly than that of the inner layers.

It is therefore much more difficult to lower the water content of a product from 25% to 15% than from 35% to 25%. It would be wrong to think that this difficulty can be overcome by carrying out a rapid drying at a high temperature. Indeed, such drying conditions generate internal tensions, producing small cracks that can lead to breakage of grains during subsequent treatments.

For the drying of grains, the methods employed are, in essence, two in number:
– Natural drying
– Artificial drying

Both have advantages and disadvantages, and there is no ideal way to meet all needs.

Natural Drying

The method of natural paddy dryer, to which the techniques illustrated in the section on pre-drying operations also relate, consists essentially in exposing the beaten products to the air (in the sun or the shade). To obtain the desired moisture content, the grains are spread in thin layers over a drying area, where they are exposed to air (in the sun or the shade) for a maximum of 10-15 days. To promote uniform drying, the seeds should frequently be stirred, especially if they are exposed to direct sunlight. In addition, for the drying to be sufficient, the relative humidity of the ambient air must not exceed 70%.

Artificial Drying

The introduction of high-yielding crop varieties and the gradual mechanization of agriculture now make it possible to harvest large quantities of grain in a short period. In the tropical and subtropical humid zones, given the unfavorable weather conditions at the time of harvest, it is often difficult to safeguard the quality of the products.

To meet the need to increase agricultural production, it is, therefore, necessary to dry the products in a relatively short time, and whatever the ambient conditions. Thus, paddy dryer plant must be used. This method consists essentially in subjecting the grains to a forced ventilation of more or less heated air. It requires the use of individual devices called “dryers.”

Artificial Raw Paddy Dryer

From the point of view of construction, the essential elements of a rice dryer machine are:

– the dryer body, which contains the grains to be dried;
– The hot air generator, which allows heating the air drying;
– The fan, which allows the circulation of drying air in the grain mass.

For the artificial drying of the grains, two types of dryers are used:

– Static or batch dryers;
– Continuous dryers.
The former is inexpensive and only treat small quantities of grain; they are therefore more suited to the needs of small and medium-sized collection and processing centers.

As for the latter, they are high flow paddy drying technology that requires more complex infrastructure, additional equipment and especially a particular planning and organization. They are therefore more suitable for large centers, silos or shops, where very large quantities of product are processed. Nextech Agri Solutions is a reliable brand if you want to purchase agricultural solutions.

A good storage facility ensures safe storage conditions for the grains whilst protecting them from adverse weather conditions, pests, moisture, and micro-organisms. Depending upon the quality of the grains to be stored and the purpose of storage, a wide range of storage methods can be adopted. The most popular ones, however, are storage silos. The word silo comes from the Greek language and literally means pit in the ground. Silos are bulk storage systems for various types of food grains. These cylindrical structures are made from galvanized steel and are hermetically sealed therefore killing all the pests present inside. Silos have gained attention in recent times because of the numerous benefits they provide. With the ever-increasing land prices, buying land for the sole purpose of storage is just not an option for everybody. The biggest advantage of a steel silo is that it is a vertical structure and occupies less ground space as compared to land or a warehouse. It is easy to maintain the optimum conditions inside the silos since temperature and moisture content can be regulated thereby keeping molds and bugs at bay. These problems generally lead to major economic losses in the long-term. Steel silos are ideal for frugal farmers and companies since they are a lot cheaper than warehouses. These silos are further equipped with automated systems like SCADA, which automatically loads and unloads grains and thus making the grain transportation cheaper and easier.

Why Silos Are The Best Form Of Bulk Storage

“Nextech solutions, India’s leading rice mill plant manufacturer offer solutions that range from processing to storage.” When it comes to storage in agriculture, Silos provide an efficient method of storing bulk quantities of grain.

“Nextech solutions, India’s leading Rice Mill Plant manufacturer offer solutions that range from processing to storage.” When it comes to storage in agriculture, Silos provide an efficient method of storing bulk quantities of grain. Silos were used in ancient Greece specifically for the purpose of storing grains that were used over a period of time. The steep rise in the price of land has virtually made it impossible to keep buying land space in order to store food grain that is produced. Rather than opting for a horizontal method of storing it is far more sensible to go vertically. Hence, the usefulness of storing food grains in bulk in silos. One can save space, prevent spillage of grains, avoid the need for gunny bags and not worry about climate changes with silos.

Agricultural silos work by creating a pressurized area within a cylindrical container; they have a closed top and a sealed bottom. The bases are sealed with organic matter such as soil whereas the closed top could be of a variety of metal or non-metal stuff. Wheat, rice, pulses can be stored inside these silos which provide good protection in the narrow space for long periods. They are used and recommended by various rice mill and flour mills. Grain Products can be stored in steel silos from the time of being harvested to up till a year.

The temperature inside the silos has to be regulated to assure the grains don’t get damaged; that includes proper aeration to control the amount of humidity inside the closed container. Another important thing is to safeguard the grains from insects, chemical control within the silos is required to protect it from insects and other rodents. Being the leading rice mill plant manufacturer in the country, Nextech provides silos which are bulk storage systems for various types of food grains.
