Alton, Ia
350 acres, your current crop, at say 180 bpa, = 63,000 bu, at 15-16,000 per day, you are done in 4 days. Why are you in such a rush to combine at 21 percent? Let it field dry, even to 18 is a big savings. Even when you go to 550 acres, in 6 days you're done. Is there something else really fun you get to do after combining is over?

I am a big believer in in bin systems. Neco, Shivvers, etc. Cost a lot less, just as efficient, plus you get a storage bin. But to do 16,000 bpd may be above that. We do 350 acres through ours with no problem, but we do take around 2 weeks to get it done.
