Alton, Ia
An 18' diameter, 3200 bushel bin. I'm younger than the program, so may have the details wrong, but I believe they were part of the reserve program back in the late 60's. The bin was paid for over several years by some government payments, and the grain inside was 'sealed'. Most farms in our area have a few, they can be bought for a few hundred bucks at farm sales.
