Grain Silos

Grain Silos can be installed in very less space and requires less manpower. We offer galvanized corrugated silos and material handling equipment for grain storage. Grain Silos reduces breakage and waste, and protects against pests and rodents. The capacity of galvanized silos range is from 50 MT to 15000 MT.

Why AGI MILLTEC Grain Silos?

Wastage of grains during storage amounts to 65 mt/year.
Net Losses assuming 3000 MT storage capacity in the godown

• Spillage losses – 1% => 3000 MT x 1% = 30 MT
• Cost of 1MT of Paddy ~ Rs. 15,000
• Spillage Losses = 15,000 x 30 = Rs. 4.5Lacs/annum

• Labor charges (approx.) – Rs.75/ton
• 3, 000 MT x 75 = 2.25 Lacs/annum

• Insect infestation & mould development 0.5%
• 5% of 3,000 MT = 15 MT
• Losses = 15 MT x Rs. 15,000/MT = 2.25 Lacs/annum

• Rodent attacks – 1% = 3,000 x 1% = 30 MT
• 15, 000 x 30 = Rs. 4.5 Lacs/annum

Total losses/annum = 5 + 2.25 + 2.25 + 4.5 = 13.5 Lacs/annum = 67mt of paddy

Conventional storage problems

• Spillage
• Labour intensive
• Moisture loss due to heavy exposure
• Difficult to stack and un-stack
• Insect attack
• Mould development
• Rodent attack
