United States Grain Storage Silos Market Analysis by Mordor Intelligence
The United States Grain Storage Silos Market size is estimated at USD 297.59 million in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 365.55 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 4.20% during the forecast period (2025-2030).
The market is driven by the growing demand for grain storage facilities and the increasing post-harvest grain losses. Since the usage of silos can support food security in communities by providing daily livelihood and economic support to small-scale farmers, there has been considerable growth in the demand for grain storage silos across the country. Moreover, rising input costs and heavy investments required in grain storage further led to a rise in the need for silos across the country.
Metal silos and steel silos are the major types of silos used by farmers across the country. Large quantities of grains can be stored in these types of silos and provided with a cover to avoid unreasonable variations in temperature and moisture. Steel silos are also widely preferred by farmers for keeping a large number of grains. Steel silos are an effective alternative for grain storage due to their versatility, easy assembly, hygienic handling, and low storage cost.
United States Grain Storage Silos Market Trends and Insights
Increasing Demand for Large Capacity Storage
Storing food grain is an essential part of the farming system in the United States to confirm household food supply. Due to high mechanization processes, silos are usually highly equipped and do not require much labor. They also offer better storage facilities and need less land compared to warehouses. They can store grains for a long time due to the controlled environment and protect them against natural calamities. Moreover, during the study period, it was observed that the United States is increasing its on-farm and off-farm storage capacity for grain. In December 2022, Off-farm grain storage capacity in the United States reached 11.822 billion bushels, up slightly from 11.817 billion bushels year-over-year, according to a Global Agricultural Information Network report from the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) of the US Department of Agriculture. The producers in the country mostly prefer flat-bottom or hopper-bottom silos as they can be used for long-term storage.
Steel Silos Holds the Largest Market Share
In recent years, there has been a significant rise in the production capacity of cereals in the US. This boosted the demand for steel silos as safe storage facilities for grains. Steel silos are versatile and easy to assemble and offer hygienic handling and low storage cost. These silos are designed according to world-class standards and specifications for the long-term storage of varied grains, cereals, and other materials. Americans primarily use galvanized corrugated sheet fabricated steel silos due to the belief that prefabricated steel silos can be demolished and maintained conveniently and are conducive to resource recycling. These silos also help solve issues like humidity, temperature control, and machinery weight to conveniently store grains like barley, corn, soybeans, wheat, sorghum, rice, and other bulk granular crops.
Competitive Landscape
The United States grain storage market is moderately consolidated. Product innovations, mergers and acquisitions, and expansions are some of the most preferred strategies for the grain storage silos market in the United States.
