Description
Every year stored forages are exchanged for one purpose or another. Quite often it is not practical to weigh these forages. An easy way to estimate quantity of forage is to measure volume and then convert this result into weight. Because of many variations, such as densities, moisture content, type of crop, it is difficult to obtain an accurate weight by measuring volume but an approximation can be determined.
