Cowman's right. Dry corn will store all winter but the warm moist spring air will cause condensation on the cool corn. The corn senses it's spring and time to sprout, and if there's moisture there it will indeed sprout.
In a bin without fans or even one with marginal fans I wouldn't store corn much past the middle or last of march no matter what the moisture is. With $7.00 corn there's too much money sitting in there to take chances. A bin with 2000 bu is worth $14000. Store it in town and pay them $.18/bu. and that's $360 storage for the first three or four months, which is only 51 bushels at $7.00. 10% loss in a 2000 bu bin is 200 bushels X $7.00=$1400 compared to $360 storage loss when stored in town.
