I did some math on the amount of gas used to dry the corn. The summary point is this was a very very efficient drying. I converted your therms of natural gas to btu's and then the btu's to propane gallons. An efficient rate is .015 gallons of propane per point per bu. A number of guys on agtalk figure .02 when doing an estimate. Your converted therms came in at .012.
