You’re unloading the last load of corn from a bin. The price is too low, but you need cash and space for the 2020 crop. The corn was wetter than you’d like when you put it in this bin, and the fan isn’t as big as it should be. You hope to replace it with a bigger one, if prices recover.
To do that, you must still be alive. That’s blunt, but that’s how Bill Field looks at it. If grain stops flowing during this unloading job and you take shortcuts to get it going again, your number just might be up. You could become a statistic in Field’s 2020 nationwide survey of confined space injuries and fatalities.
