Agribusiness & Heavy Equipment

Modern agribusiness operations run on precision, power, and efficiency. Your buildings need to support the heavy machinery and high-volume workflows that drive success on today’s farms. That’s why Rice Companies delivers more than walls and roofs—we design and build facilities that work as hard as you do.

Our team understands the complexities of agriculture-specific construction, from ventilation needs in livestock buildings to layout optimization for grain storage or equipment repair bays. We work closely with each client to understand how your operation functions, what challenges you face, and how you see your business developing in the future—and then we build around it.

Our capabilities include:
  • Equipment storage facilities for combines, sprayers, and tractors
  • High-clearance machine sheds with custom access solutions
  • Grain handling and bulk material storage systems
  • Feed mills and fertilizer containment buildings
  • Livestock barns, dairy parlors, and poultry housing
  • Wash bays, vehicle maintenance shops, and parts warehouses

We proudly partner with Butler Manufacturing to offer customizable pre-engineered metal building systems that stand the test of time. Butler’s reputation for quality aligns with our commitment to delivering low-maintenance, high-performance structures that reduce operational downtime.
