Anyone driving around Central Ag Services in Eagle Bend since October 15 has seen a lot of corn. For a time the corn was piled on the street. Earlier this fall a second dryer was added, nearly doubling the drying capacity, 400-700 bushels an hour. They have been running 24 hours a day, seven days a week, since October 15.
