Harvestor silos can absolutely be reused. And 25 years ago the market for used Blue Monuments were in hit demand. Now in 2022, there is little demand, and you will have trouble getting much out of yours. Some are being knocked down and cut up for scrap, sad. There are two things that have killed off the market. One thing is the fact that livestock operations find the high capital cost and operating cost of these blue silos, considering the volume of feed they hold, just isnt practical. And silage and ground high moisture grain corn can be kept much more cost effectively in a concrete bunker. Also the unloaded are high cost to maintain and are far too slow to unload compared to the bucket on a payloader. We call them monuments to a dead farmer, because most farmers that put them up are dead and gone. And they sit empty on now empty farms that are only cash cropped.
