Dr. Kenneth Hellevang: Smarter Corn Storage | Ep. 96
In this episode of The Crop Science Podcast Show, we launch our special corn production series. One new episode will come out each month, tackling the real decisions corn growers deal with and sharing practical takeaways you can use on your own farm.
We kick things off with a topic that hits grain quality and farm margins head-on: grain storage. Dr. Kenneth Hellevang, Emeritus Professor and retired Extension Engineer from North Dakota State University, breaks down what matters most, from bin size and aeration capacity to temperature cables, airflow setup, and new sensor tools hitting the market.
Grain storage gives you more control over harvest timing, marketing, and delivery, but the system has to fit the scale of your operation. Learn how to protect grain quality and hold more value from your corn crop. Listen now on all major platforms!
"Every ten degrees that we cool the grain, we double the storage life."
