Is letting it dry in the field out of the question? We use to only harvest if the corn was below 18%. Then we just ran air through it. We had a 6,000 bu bin with a perforated drying floor, but didn't have a burner on it, just a 5hp axial flow fan.
That always worked well with humidity below 55%.
On smaller bins, 1,000 bu or so, I have used the little screw in. tube type to just run a little air through.

Ground ear corn is the best cattle feed there is.
good luck, Gene
