    Case Study>> Rural Agricultural>>Rollestone Camp, The Packway, Shrewton, Wiltshire Client>>Wiltshire Grain Ltd Project>>Erection of a Flatstore to extend the centralised grain storage facility for a farmers co-operative GP Planning Ltd successfully obtained planning permission for the erection of a 3620sqm flat- store building for the storage of 20,000 tonnes of grain for a County wide farmers co-operative on Salisbury Plain, near to the Stonehenge World Heritage Site. Centralised storage is beneficial to the economics of arable production; farmers have more control over their investment, conditions under which products are stored are professionally controlled, and the co-operative system results in fewer silos and/or grain store buildings being necessary across the broader countryside. Changes in the farming of grain and seed crops, due to developments in the global economy, and in the production of biofuels, means that agricultural production must increase; meanwhile there is an acknowl- edged shortage of on-farm storage and a demand by end-processors to take their inputs on a just-in-time basis. A flatstore is needed to • Provide a facility for the increase in members of the co-operative who have very large amounts of the same variety / quality of grain; and • To accumulate very large amounts of the same variety / quality of grain for delivery of large orders. The site is on Salisbury Plain, with military areas in close proximity. The location is also close to the Stone- henge World Heritage Site with its related ancient monuments and historic landscape. There are also wide areas of land nearby comprising Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Special Protection Areas.
