The annual winter discount post card quoted 48-12 ring stiffened , 8 inch power sweep, 10 HP fan and 10 HP unload, 65 yards cement @24 inch concrete. 72097 bushels. No gravel or wiring. $1.615 a bushel. Slightly down from last year. Good thru December.
10hp fan? We have 2 20hp and that's barely adequate, I cant imagine a 10 even getting air through the top
Well,you imagine wrong.lol. We’ve had single 10 horse fans on 55,000 bushel bins and 85,000 bushel bins for many years, and
they work fine to keep the crop in condition. 2-10Hp on a 115,000 works fine too;).
Cost per bushel of constructing a bin?
