Cold weather as a rule, will not hasten drying in the field. Corn needs to be fully black layered and sunny dry weather will remove 5 points a week. If you remember the harvest of 1992, the year with no summer, corn that was harvested in January was still well over 30 percent moisture. This year's corn is kind of unique in that the starch content of the kernal was not as dense due to the lack of sunlight to facilitate photosynthesis, leading to a loss of test weight as it dried, rather than the opposite which is more commonplace. Some driers are also experiencing moisture bounce back, were the moisture of dried corn will go up in storage due to the less dense starch which hampers moisture transition out of the kernel. Lots of new situations emerging this year, and were not done with it yet!
