If you have a farm then it is important to have farm machinery shed. Usually farm machinery sheds are a big hall like structures with covered rooftops to protect your farming equipment. Having a farm machinery shed is important because your farming tools, equipment, and vehicles like tractors, etc. need space for storage. If you keep them on the open then there are various risks such as due to heavy rainfall they might get damaged or due to storm they might get blown away. Even direct sunlight should be avoided to protect the engines of the tractors and water pumps.

Types of Things that you can Store in your Farm Machinery Shed
Once built, you can use it for literally any purpose like storing of tractors, pumps, axes, and even your crops which are surplus.
Now let's look at the some of the farming sheds that can built for your farm
Types of Farming Sheds
- One Side Open Sheds
These are the farm machinery sheds where one part of the faces of the shed is completely open. This allows the easier parking of your farming vehicles, and you don't have to worry about one blocking the way for another. By having these you don't have to open and shut the huge shutter doors whenever you have to keep something inside or take something inside from your shed. But one big problem lies is that theft and robbery issue remain due to lack of doors.
- Open Gable Sheds
Here one of the faces of the shed is open but there is one major advantage as well. In these types of farm machinery sheds, there are no pillar or supporting structures that support the roof across the open face of the shed. Thus, any machinery can be kept inside and the bigger commercial farming vehicles can also be parked easily.
These types of sheds can be built if you have structural or high-quality steel for building your shed. Its highly used in zones where people have huge plots of farming land and inside the shed the bigger farming vehicles are parked.
- Open-Sided with one Structural Column
It is quite similar to open side sheds except for the fact that across the open side there is one column only that is supporting the roof. As there is only one structural steel column across the open face your shed is divided into two portions for taking out or parking the vehicles.
- Closed Shed
These farm machinery sheds are closed from all four sides. The main difference from the open ones is that the open side is closed with a door installed on it. These are the ones that provide better security for your farming shed.
One of the problems is that due to all four sides being closed there is no room for ventilation so you should have some room for ventilation if you intend to keep your surplus farming produce inside your shed.
