THE SILO, in terms of its storage capacity of 50,000 t of grain and mechanical equipment; ranks among the largest silos in Serbia . It consists of three basic structures which are separated buildings, but from the technological point of view they form one unity. The cell batteries for grain storage are positioned on both sides of the machine building, and each of them consists of 6 x 4 cells, dia 7 m.
