Abstract: Excerpts from the report: Because of the rapid expansion and the increase in importance of flat storage in recent years, Farmer Cooperative Service and Kansas State University made this study to provide information to those planning new storage and to those desiring cost estimates of flat-storage facilities. The cost data in this report should apply generally to flat-storage facilities throughout the Midwest. Allowance was made for recent increases in building costs to arrive at the estimated cost figures. The purpose of this report is (1) to indicate the role and development of flat-type facilities in meeting the needs of Kansas producers for grain-storage space, and (2) to analyze the costs of storing in flat facilities.
