Crop Silos
Crop Silos are storage buildings used to store harvested crops. They allow players to store large quantities of crops without needing to keep them inside trailers or other vehicles.
Crop Silos are particularly useful for large-scale farming and production chains where crops need to be stored before being transported to factories.

Stored Crops
Crop Silos can be used to store harvested crops such as:
- Wheat
- Corn
- Rice
- Oats
- Other compatible harvested crops
The silo is designed for storing loose/boxed crop products rather than finished factory products.
How to Use a Crop Silo
1. Purchase the Silo
Open the Create menu and purchase a Crop Silo.
Place the silo somewhere accessible to your farming equipment and transport vehicles.
2. Load Crops
Bring your harvested crops to the Crop Silo using a suitable vehicle or trailer.
Unload the crops into the silo's storage area.
The crops will be added to the silo's available storage.
3. Store Crops
Once the crops have been deposited, they remain stored inside the silo.
The silo can hold up to 300 boxes of crops.
4. Remove Crops
When you need the crops for selling or production, use a suitable vehicle or trailer at the silo's loading area.
The stored crops can then be transferred into the vehicle for transportation.

Crop Silos are especially useful for:
- Storing crops between harvests
- Building up large quantities of ingredients
- Supplying production factories
- Reducing the need for multiple trailers
- Preparing crops for large production batches
Tip: Crop Silos are particularly useful when running factories such as the Animal Food Factory, Cake Factory, and Honey Oatmeal Factory, where large quantities of harvested crops may be required.
