It should keep a year at 14.5 folks will do it with 16 & 17% here in the cold climates, if you get it moved before it warms up to 70 degrees it will likely be fine. This is without air, or not much. Has to go in the bin cold tho. A lot will run 18% in the bin & run air over it for an extended time. Again with the cold climate, it will either dry or freeze up. You just need to watch it close. Check the bin every week for hot spots, & don't plan to keep it more than March. Good idea to take a load out now & then (or be feeding out of the bin) to move the middle core of fines & keep the hot spots moving a bit. If you get to 20%, you best have some heat with the air and if not a dedicated drier then stir the bin as well. It's not uncommon to start with 24% moisture around here, tho hybreds have gotten better drydown the past 3-5 years. One year I pulled a field of 32%, odd year, it wouldn't dry, was 110 day corn. We don't do 110 day any more. --->Paul
