grain silos
Tall farm cylinders
Grain silos are tall cylindrical structures used to store bulk quantities of grain, corn, or other agricultural products.
The distinctive towers dot rural landscapes near farms and along rail lines.
Silos protect harvested grain from weather and pests while awaiting sale or processing: The elevator operator filled the grain silos after harvest.
