One of the most critical aspects of milling is the storage and handling of byproducts. These materials are valuable for animal feed production, but they present storage challenges due to their tendency to compact and bridge in poorly designed silos, leading to erratic flow, reduced material quality, and potential production downtime.
Grain storage is no longer just a logistical concern but a strategic pillar of food security in an age of trade wars, pandemics, and shipping disruptions.
