Project Details

Due to an expansion in the South Dakota State University (SDSU) Plant Science and Crop Production departments, there was a significant need for more modern seed processing and storage facilities. Schemmer* provided full architectural services for the SDSU Plant Science Research Support Facility that provided them with a new 16,720 SF support building that includes refrigerated storage for pure seed stock; project workrooms for processing, handling, sorting, and storage of seed stock to be used for research projects; grinding areas for separation of the seed from chaff; drying rooms; a drive-through unloading alley which can accommodate small combines. Office space for department staff is also included.
