Anyone with a large soil heap? You already have the groundwork done for something in the style of 'Weingut I', a fortified German WW2 bunker. It was innovatively built by concreting over a heap of gravel so no need for internal forms or structures. When the concrete is cured simply dig out the gravel and hey presto

Always called them a Dutch Barn.

Git one in a offlying block of ground. Ok to put a bit of straw in but that’s about it
Isn't that what they were primarily designed for?
Cost effective as long legs and a compact roof.
"Normal" apex sheds have much larger steels and you cant really stack many extra bales in the apex.

Good snow loading capacity as it won't hang on the roof?

I'm sure they are (or at least, permanent buildings are cheap) however there is a value in having something that can be easily relocated if needs be, which, as a tenant myself, is something I've always considered.
A steel frame shed can be easily relocated
Buy a kit for less than price of two contsiners
