Gigantic silos and record breaking dryers

A little over a year ago, AgGrowth Industries, the world-famous manufacturer of post-harvest equipment, opened a new plant in Canada where it builds the Twister silos, the biggest in their class. Company experts say this is a move to address farmers' needs. One of the first shipments of these gigantic silos has left for Russia.

This summer, AgroCentreLiski supplied Zarechnoye LLC (Ramonsky district of Voronezh oblast) with six Twister FB 75-13 silos, each with a capacity of 7,000 tonnes. Their total capacity (for wheat) is 30,000 tonnes.

“Zarechnoye LLC is implementing a rather large meat production project with breeding stock numbering 30,000 head”, Sergey Lomantsov, AgroCentreLiski executive director says. “A big herd needs a lot of fodder. And a large amount of fodder grain must be stored somewhere.  Twister silos are today not only the most capacious among their peers, but they also best meet price-to-quality demands. This equipment is already being delivered to the farm. We're finishing the foundation grouting and are set to start installation work”.

In addition AgroCentreLiski LLC has supplied Zarechnoye LLC with the MEPU CF-100 grain dryer. This is a pioneer on both Russian and international post-harvest markets. Thus far, this is Russia's first and sole dryer featuring such high output, up to 100 tonnes per hour. Machines by this manufacturer with a lower capacity, to 80 tonnes per hour, are known across the world for their impeccable performance, outstanding efficiency and trouble-free operation.
