The grain drying and storage facility in Płużnica Wielka, Poland, is an example of a systematically developed investment carried out over a period of just under two years in close cooperation with the investor, Eko Zboża.
Our collaboration with the company of Mr. Jan Richter (Eko Zboża) began in 2023 with the modernization of the existing storage infrastructure. This initial stage included the construction of a receiving pit, a conveyor system feeding the flat storage hall, and the design of an aeration system for the warehouse. Subsequent phases involved further expansion of the facility with a new drying and silo section, which was completed in 2025.
In the pre-investment phase, the investor visited other facilities in the region, analyzing various technological solutions for dryers and silos and introducing modifications to the original concept. This process ensured that the final facility fully met the actual operational needs of the farm.
Today, the entire site operates as one cohesive complex, equipped, among other features, with DDC automation, which controls the drying process based on two moisture sensors (grain inlet and outlet). The system automatically selects optimal parameters and does not require constant operator intervention, only supervision.
The facility has successfully completed its first corn drying season and, thanks to proper grain preparation for storage, has significantly increased the farm’s grain storage capacity.
