Not when we're drying, but this time of year we make sure that we'll run the fans when it's cool at night. We're trying to cool that corn down and keep the moisture from coming on the top of the grain so that we can prevent the crusting. We'll make sure that we are looking in the bins and trying to keep them cool and keep that crust from coming. The other thing is that we've hauled a lot out.

So we're going to have 60, 70% of our corn hauled out. And we make sure we pull a lot out of every bin. So the centers are all down. The fines are all out of there. They're all cored. We keep the grain moving. And we'll probably, we'll empty a couple of those bins and fill one completely with, you know, last year's corn.

And just as long as you keep it moving and keep fresh air to it, we haven't had any issues.

Yeah, yeah, we do. Most of our bins are tied together. We have one that we can't, we have to load out of just that one. It's not tied into the leg, but we've got conveyors set up and everything so we can blend out of multiple bins.

we had uh this is just kind of a a way to look at how bins can really pay for themselves but maybe 12 13 years ago we had some really wet corn and a lot of guys were bringing in corn that it was like caramelized because it took so much to dry it down so it was just ugly corn you were getting brown kernels in there and the elevator was docking everybody so bad for that they were totally taking advantage of it right

We kept a bin over of that stuff, and then the next year we just blended out of that bin with all the new grain, and they never said a word about it. I mean, we paid for two-thirds of that bin in one year. Just through that.

That's why they were docking people for that corn. They were blending it with other stuff, yeah.

A tip, farming tip, tech tip, something. Watch your cash flow. Okay. We find that just having good cash flow software and having the right numbers in there and knowing how to put that into place is huge for us. That's one of the things my dad's always been good at. So data-driven decisions, not just gut feeling.
