Durable bins designed to handle Minnesota’s humid summers, heavy snow, and year-round storage demands. Protect your crop investment with reliable storage solutions.
As one of the top producers of corn and soybeans in the U.S., Minnesota’s large yields can lead to storage challenges and missed profits for unprepared farmers. Wentworth Ag helps farmers design systems that preserve grain quality, improve harvest efficiency, and adapt to changing conditions.
From southern corn and soybean operations to northern small grains, we understand how climate and crop mix shape storage needs.
We go beyond supplying bins, offering site planning, installation, and grain management tools to create cohesive, efficient systems.
We work with leading suppliers to deliver bins and handling systems built to withstand Minnesota’s freeze–thaw cycles, storms, and long winters.
Wentworth Ag supplies grain bins and handling systems tailored to Minnesota’s large harvests and variable weather. Our lineup includes flat bottom, hopper, and smooth wall bins from GSI that are designed for optimal durability and efficiency.
But bins are only part of the picture. We also provide dryers, aeration systems, conveyors, and elevators, so farmers can manage high-moisture corn, hold soybeans long-term, and streamline grain flow at harvest. Whether you’re expanding your storage or building a full system from the ground up, we’ll help you plan it right.
With decades of prairie experience, we combine proven equipment with planning, layout design, and long-term support. From single-bin installs to large farm sites, we help Minnesota farmers protect every bushel and prepare for the future.
Choosing the right grain bin in North Dakota involves way more than just picking a size. Here are some of the key factors that influence the decision — and how we can help you address them.
Minnesota’s corn and soybeans often come off the field at higher moisture, creating risks for spoilage. We design systems with the right combination of dryers, aeration, and monitoring tools so grain can be stored longer without losing value. This protects quality and ensures you’re ready to sell when the market is right.
Heavy traffic during harvest means semis, grain carts, and augers all competing for space. We help farmers lay out bin sites that improve traffic flow, minimize bottlenecks, and keep harvest moving smoothly. A well-planned site also leaves room for future expansion without disrupting your current workflow.
Minnesota winters bring heavy snow loads, ice buildup, and freeze–thaw cycles that test bin strength. We recommend equipment with proven durability in these conditions, from reinforced roofs to access points designed for safety in subzero weather. Long-term performance matters when you farm in a state with some of the harshest winters in the U.S.
Minnesota farmers grow more than just corn and soybeans — sugar beets, small grains, and specialty crops add complexity to storage needs. We tailor bin systems to handle diverse crops, balancing capacity for long-term storage with flexibility for faster turnover. That versatility gives farms the ability to adapt as markets and rotations change.
We know that shopping for a grain bin in Minnesota can feel overwhelming and frustrating. But the good news is that it doesn’t need to be. With Wentworth Ag, we know how to guide you through the process from start to finish and skip the major headaches. Want to take the first step?

Minnesota farmers are no strangers to big yields. With corn averaging 174 bushels per acre and soybeans around 45 bushels per acre, harvest often outpaces available storage. That creates a constant question: how do you protect grain quality while waiting for the right market window? We hear from growers who need bins large enough to hold full crops without relying on temporary piles or quick turnover. Planning storage around high yields not only prevents losses — it also gives farmers the flexibility to market grain when prices are in their favor.
Huge yields are a blessing, but lead to potential problems if you don’t consider what you need before harvest. Let us help you come up with a solid grain storage solution.

Q: What grain bin sizes are most common in Minnesota?
A: In Minnesota, grain bin size depends heavily on operation scale and crop mix. Many row-crop farms choose large-capacity bins for corn and soybeans, while smaller operations may use mid-sized bins for wheat or specialty crops. Not sure what’s right for you? We’ll help you size your system for today’s needs and tomorrow’s growth.
Q: Do I need a permit to install a grain bin in Minnesota?
A: Permit requirements vary by county and township in Minnesota. While some areas don’t require a permit, electrical hookups and site preparation often fall under building codes. We’ll help you check local requirements so your project avoids delays.
Q: Can I add a dryer later if I don’t install one now?
A: Yes — many Minnesota farmers add dryers later as their acres and harvest volumes increase. We plan sites with future flexibility in mind, so adding a dryer or expanding your system won’t require starting over.
Q: How long does it take to get a bin installed?
A: Installation timelines depend on product availability, weather, and site prep. In Minnesota, the short construction season can also affect timing. Once we know your project details, we’ll provide a clear schedule.
Q: Do you offer grain equipment across Minnesota?
A: Absolutely — we work with farmers throughout Minnesota, from the southern corn belt to northern small-grain regions. We also work in North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, and even Canada. Ask us about delivery and installation options for your area.
