Abstract

Excerpts from the report: In Montana, the principal function of country elevators is to buy and store grain. Here the farmer can find a ready cash grain market throughout the year. In addition, many of these elevators offer a variety of sidelines. This study is based on a survey--made in the summer of 1957--of 48 cooperative country elevators in Montana. It includes information for the year beginning in June 1956 and running through May 1957 on kind of elevator, type of structure, grain receipts and sales, storage capacity, turnover, transportation used, sidelines, and employees. Information gathered on storage problems, operating techniques, services, and costs will aid others in the grain trade in planning new elevator facilities. Although this survey was limited to cooperative elevators, the information gathered here and in the case studies will be valuable to all country elevators in Montana.
