Ear corn values apply with greatest accuracy at harvest because differences in cob and grain moisture will change in storage. Marcus Zuber, University of Missouri Agronomy Department. shelled corn at 15.5% moistureġEar corn values supplied by Dr. Shelled corn (lbs.) Equivalent to 56 lbs. Harvest weight (lbs.) of ear corn to yield 56 shelled corn at 15.5% moisture 1

Moisture Conversion for Ear and Shelled Corn This calculation will give a more accurate figure for lbs./cu. If actual bushel weight (test weight) is available, multiply actual bushel weight by 0.803. Multiply cubic feet of volume by the appropriate figure from Table 2 under Pounds/Cubic Feet. In circular bins, the formula is: pi (3.14) multiplied by the radius squared, multiplied by the depth of grain = cubic feet. Width in feet multiplied by length in feet multiplied by depth of grain in feet equals cubic feet in square or rectangular enclosures.ġ0 ft.
