Clean Storage Vital In Handling Corn That Has Excessive Moisture
Corn with 20 to 25 percent moisture can suffer severe damage if harvested and cribbed without precautions. Delay harvesting until late October when possible and use careful bin handling. Clean husking is essential to remove shell, chaff, and dirt that fill voids and impede aeration. Portable elevators now include screens to remove this material before cribbing.

A simple home built dehydrator uses a spout section and rod bottom to guide corn over a wheel or rod. Shelled corn drops through and can be fed to livestock or spread thin to avoid heating. Ventilators spaced to crib walls aid drying, salt reduces fermentation but not spoilage, and good aeration remains essential.
