Features of a Country Elevator (Grain Elevator)
A country elevator is a facility that uses dryers to artificially dry rice, allowing it to be stored while maintaining the moisture content of the most delicious rice.
This facility allows rice to be shipped in a planned manner.
In addition, by having a rice milling factory on site, rice hulling and milling can be done at the production site.
This system is being adopted in many places.
The country elevator can dry not only rice, but also wheat, soybeans, etc.
