The article proves the prospects of grain production in Ukraine and defines that the implementation of the production potential of the industry is slowed by insufficient technical and technological parameters as well as outdated grain storage facilities. The problem of disproportion between the potential volume of grain production and the certified grain storage facilities in Ukraine requires the search for alternative options of technical and technological support for grain stocks management. The method of identifying territorial reserves for the construction of elevator facilities is proposed based on the integral estimation of the proportions between the parameters of the grain offer and the possibilities of its storage across different regions of Ukraine with the corresponding mapping visualization. Alternative options for grain stocks storage based on producers' point of view are considered, and the use of Argentine grain storage technology is proposed for domestic agricultural enterprises that are unable to provide themselves with their own modern grain silos. Feasibility study on the use of Argentine technology has been carried out and its benefits for enterprises with limited financial resources have been identified.
