Sorry about the bph mistake it should have been bpa, in areas where a short season is a factor I can see the possible benefit but around here the dockage is around 7 cents and up per point of moisture, so on 30% corn that is 1.05 per bushel x 150 bushels = $157.50 , even with the ag specialist claiming as much 10% loss at 15% moisture that is 15 bushels x $4.00 = $60.00, as for there calculations if 15 bushels were lost here the ground would heave up with all that volunteer corn coming up, and the claims that wet corn is easier to harvest, they have never ran a combine in wet corn then dry, dry is probably 30% less load on the combine not to mention the hauling and handling equipment, I know of two brothers that spray theirs as soon so they can to get a jump on starting to harvest, we sell to the same market and the operator told my son that the first corn they brought in was docked $1.50 per bushel for moisture. May be that I don't understand all the positive reasons for harvesting high moisture corn for grain but my figures won't match theirs.
