Abella Spoilage and Drying Methods for Stored Corn
Spoilage risk rises with warmer weather and high moisture in stored corn, says Michigan State University engineer Robert Maddox. Cribs under six feet wide allow natural air drying. larger cribs may need fans, with one horsepower fans drying about 1000 bushels in 10 hours at 60 to 65 degrees. Substitutes like PTO fans or improvised flues aid ventilation, but grain must be tested for final moisture. County agents offer bulletins on drying methods.
