granaries
Wheat storage buildings
Granaries are buildings for storing grain after harvest.
The word appears most often in plural because farms and regions typically have multiple storage structures.
Figuratively, a granary is any region that produces abundant grain: The Midwest is America's granary.
The singular granary refers to a single storage building or, abstractly, to a supply of grain.
