Ear corn storage?


Going to pick some corn this week. The corn is at 15% moisture and will be put up in a commodity shed after harvested. Should I be worried about there being a limited amount of air movement through the ear corn at the moisture it is at and how it is being stored. I will be shelling it as I need to make hog feed.

At that moisture the only problem you will have is excessive shelling on the snapping rolls when you pick it and handling it after that. Storing it at that moisture should be no problem.

Thanks. Not to worried about the shelling on rollers. Guess I will get some volunteer corn in with my winter annual.
