nw MN
It might lose half a point a week this time of the year if you are lucky. Realistically it won't dry much at all until it starts to warm up in the spring. If you have your own dryer it might make sense to dry it. If hauling it to the elevator and paying drying plus the extra shrink they like to hit you with it probably pencils better to leave it in the field and get it in the spring. You will lose the outside rows, and it will probably drop some ears. The 30+% stuff might be best calling around to some livestock guys and see if they want it for earlage or for HM bagged corn. If I hauled that to the elevator here it would be .05/point to dry and 2:1 shrink. So over a dollar of discounts.

Edit: Is it light test weight too? Sounds like it didn't get to black layer.
