Brinkley, Arkansas | John those were my thoughts exactly. It'll probably be cheaper in the long run to relocate the bins and have the electrical capacity for expansion in the future.
Southfork......I don't know anyone in the south that runs the real low hp fans on their bins like the guys up north. If you're going to put rice in them you'll need more air than single phase motors will provide UNLESS you're putting up small bins (small bins = more $$$/bu). Rice is much harder to push air through than corn or beans. I talked to my bin guy the other day and he says the most common bin going up now is a 48' with a 50 hp fan and burner. As warm as we usually are during harvest you gotta get it dry quick or spoilage will be a problem.
