CNKS: Your right, all depends whether you approach this from a moisture content or a dry matter content point of view.

The item we were advised on 30 years ago was not to try pricing by the bushel as cob will add far greater percentage by volume than by weight. We were advised to use weight in all calculations. The research people involved at the time suggested we could make this calculation so complicated it would be unworkable. What we ended up using was weight of each load and a moisture content sample of ground material from each load. There was a set of truck scales between farms, we had a moisture content tester, thus were able to do this on sight. It was quick, simple and as I said before we both remained friends.
