Abstract

An underground well silo (100) includes: an upper unit structure having a concrete wall (110a) with suitable fastening means (112a) to receive an air tight seal lid (120); an intermediate unit structure made of a series of concrete walls (110b) stackably joined to form the depth of the silo; a bottom unit structure having a one end closed concrete wall (110c); wherein green materials are stored in a loading compartment (130) that is made of a series of inner wall plates (132) embedded in the silo (100), said loading compartment (130) is provided with a bottom plate (140) connected to a loop chain (150) such that it can be detachably linked to a loading/unloading mechanism (160) via a hook; and wherein trapped air in the silo (100) is extractable through a one way valve (124) of the air tight seal lid (120) to keep silage in an anaerobic condition.
