To successfully grow corn, you need your own grain dryer - an expert

According to the results of the 2022 corn season, in order to successfully cultivate the crop, you need your own grain drying equipment. The director of "NEW ELEVATOR" Evgeny Romanov told about this in the material "How to dry corn in 2023? Lessons from Last Season” on Elevatorist.com.
Thus, in 2022, farmers in the central and western parts of Ukraine faced a problem - corn in the fall had a high yield and high moisture content - up to 35%. Accordingly, it was very expensive to dry such grain in third-party elevators, and it was problematic to collect it due to weather conditions. Therefore, farmers tried to solve this problem, each in their own way.
Some practiced deferred collection. Some farmers threshed corn for the 2022 harvest as early as May 2023. Farmers also practiced selling wet grain from the field.
At the same time, experts recommend having your own grain dryer.
