Grain elevator
A grain elevator is a facility used to store, manage, and transport large quantities of grain such as wheat, corn, or soybeans. It typically consists of tall structures with conveyor systems that lift the grain from trucks or ships, store it temporarily in silos, and then distribute it to other locations or loading areas. Grain elevators help prevent spoilage, facilitate efficient handling, and ensure quality control during the storage and distribution process. They are essential in agriculture and food supply chains, linking farmers to markets and processing facilities.
