Best Answer

To dry field corn, most farmers use a dryer system in the corn silo after the corn is put into the silo. If the corn cannot be dried this way, a standing corn crib that is at least 3 feet off the ground can be used to let the corn air dry. The legs of the corn crib should be lashed with stove pipe to prevent rats and field mice from getting into the corn.
