Recent research from the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) emphasises the critical importance of quality grain storage as a key factor for farm profitability. As NSW farmers navigate increasingly unpredictable seasons and fluctuating market conditions, investing in reliable, secure storage solutions has never been more crucial.

GRDC highlights that poor grain storage leads directly to profit loss through issues like moisture damage, pest infestations, and spoilage. On-ground silos, specifically flat-bottom storage silos, are identified as an optimal solution for maintaining grain quality, securing maximum returns, and mitigating risk.

At Gwydir Group, our locally-engineered on-ground silos, like those from our partner SilOz (formerly Cyclone), are purpose-built to meet the exacting demands outlined by GRDC. They are designed to:

  • Maintain Grain Quality: Advanced ventilation and sealing features keep grain fresh and safe from contamination.
  • Reduce Pest Risk: Robust, high-quality construction keeps pests out, reducing reliance on chemical treatments.
  • Increase Market Flexibility: Reliable on-farm storage allows farmers to sell when market conditions are optimal, maximising profitability.

With decades of experience in silo construction across regional NSW, Gwydir Group understands the unique challenges our farmers face. Our team provides tailored advice and service, ensuring your investment directly supports your operation’s profitability.
