■For this farm, ear corn picking is still the most economical way to harvest com. I don't pay a dime to dry my corn, and I can harvest my crop even when the moisture's high.
■A few years ago. we got more than our share of rain. The harvest was way late—midJanuary—and I had to pick some com and crib it at 36% moisture
*Frankly. I worried about spoilage. But when the crib was emptied, there wasn't two wheelbarrow loads of spoiled com.
Tm really sold on ear corn drying in the crib. And as for my New Idea two-row picker, it's hard to beat. Tve owned three of them over the past 17 or 18 years. All those years the worst problem 1 had was a broken conveyor chain, and Avco New Idea made that good—no charge! You cant beat thatr
