CHECK (/) THE FOLLOWING
STATEMENTS WHICH APPLY TO YOU
I WANT TO MAKE & SAVE MORE MONEY.
I WANT LESS SHRINK AND HIGHER TEST
WEIGHTS.
I AM TIRED OF PAYING THE ELEVATOR TO
STORE AND DRY MY CORN CROP.
I WANT THE FLEXIBILITY TO SELL MY CROP,
WHEN I WANT...WITHOUT MOISTURE DOCKAGE.
(If you’ve checked one or more of these statements - read the
following to find out how.)
The one product that will satisfy all of these desires, is the
AeroDry Grain Management System.
AeroDry uses natural fan forced air, controlled by computer,
to dry your corn. There’s no high heat, only mother nature’s
way of lowering moisture levels.
AeroDry can save you up to 75% of energy drying costs. The
natural moisture removal process provides less shrink and
higher test weights. You don’t “cook” the quality out of your
crop.
AeroDry’s computer controls moisture levels day and night
without baby-sitting. You make the profit the elevator makes,
by selling your crop when you want - without moisture
dockage.
If you’re serious about making more money on your corn
crop... you’ll call AeroDry before the fall rush. Farm proven
from the midwest to the east coast - AeroDry is FARM
TECHNOLOGY FOR FARM PROFIT..
