Corn will keep for years IF it is dried to 12-13 percent moisture and cooled. In the 1980s I rented a 30 foot diameter 40 foot tall grain bin. It did have an air floor but no electric on the farm any more, last building standing. I dried corn in the bins at my house, took it down to 12% moisture. I then move it into the rented bin. I put 20,000 bushel in the bin. The next summer I pulled one 1000 bushel load out and it was fine. Corn was selling for $1.65 and the government would pay me $.25 a bushel to store it. So I left it. I did not worry about it too much as I could always have feed it if anything happened. Anyway the government paid me storage on that corn for three years. I did fumigate it for bugs twice each year. I sold the corn out of the bin in the forth summer it was stored with zero dock age. The price was in the low $3 and I got paid enough to help on interest.
Also the corn has to have good test weights too. IF it is chaff then it will not keep.
