    WILL IT PAY TO HARVEST
THE CORN THIS YEAR....?
Predicting com prices is not an easy task. Regardless of market
prices... wouldn’t you like to be making more money?
AeroDry Grain Management has developed a system for you to
make more money on your crop... regardless of market prices.
The AeroDry system allows you to store and dry your own crop on
the farm. You don’t pay the elevator for storing or drying - you
make their profit.
The AeroDry system uses natural fan forced air, controlled by
computer, to dry your com. There’s no high heat to “cook” the
quality out of your crop.
The natural air process provides less shrink and higher test weights,
while saving up to 75% on energy costs.
Whether you’re modifying existing bins or installing completely,
AeroDry Grain Management will allow you to sell your crop when
you want - without moisture dockage.
Farm proven from the midwest to the east coast - AeroDry is FARM
TECHNOLOGY FOR FARM PROFIT.
