PUBLIC ELEVATOR
A grain elevator that, for an associated fee, stores the bulk grain of public clients. A public elevator allows farmers to store grain without having to build individual silos, and are typically found at transit points where grain is shipped to market. If the grain of each farmer is mixed together within the public elevator, it is impossible to tell the products of individual farmers apart. This reduces the competition between individual farmers, and the operator sells the grain at the best price he or she can get.
