If you do not mind another opinion I would feel safe at 20 percent with the expected daytime temp 55 degrees or below and below 40 at night. Also, a corn picker with a deck plate type is the way to go as I do not know of any varieties that work with the older style pickers. You are pretty much limited to a JD 300 picker which is a good picker but not cheap. You are probably between a rock and a hard place if you only have 5-10 acres to pick as a good 300 picker will easily be above 3,000 dollars and 5,000 or more if really nice. How many acres do you pick and could you pick up custom work where your are at to upgrade to a 300 picker? I'll also mention that with the 300 that the head is detachable and you can go from wide row to 30" using the same base machine.
