Corn, More Corn

Several days ago I shared some harvest images from the 2008 Corn Crop in Clayton County, Iowa. Here you can see some dried corn being loaded for shippment to either a grain elevator for additional storage or direct shipment. Most Corn growers place some of their anticipated harvest under contract in the futures market in anticipation of selling for a higher price rather than direct shipment to the processors or for export during the harvest season.

You can also see the corn dryer located between the storage bins.
