I don't remember the formula that accounts for the cob. That is called shelling percentage, and will vary according to the hybrid -- I suppose there is some standard formula. As to moisture of the grain, corrected to the standard 15.5%, the calcualtion is similar to what Hugh used. For grain %M only it is (1-%M)/0.845 times the wet weight. Thus for 10000 lbs having 17% moisture, the calculation is 1-0.17/0.845 = 0.982. 0.982*10000= 9820 lbs of dry (15.5%) corn.
