| Calculations |
| Use your calculator and these formulas to quickly figure out exact acreage and yields. |
|
|
| Corn, soybeans and sorghum |
(Row length, ft.) x (Row width, in.) x (# of rows) / 522,720 = acres |
| Wheat |
(Row length, ft.) x (Width of harvest strip, ft.) / 43,560 = acres |
|
|
|
|
| Corn - Grain |
(100 - harvest moisture) x (lbs. grain harvested) x (110.465) / (row length, ft.) / (row width, in.) / (# rows harvested) / bu./A of corn at 15.5% moisture |
| Corn - Silage |
(100 - actual % silage moisture) x (green wt. silage, lbs./A.) / (30) = lbs./A of silage adjusted to 70% moisture |
| Soybeans |
(100 - harvest moisture) x (lbs. grain harvested) x (100.138) / (row length, ft.) / (row width, in.) / (# rows harvested) = bu./A of soybeans at 13% moisture |
| Sorghum |
(100 - harvest moisture) x (lbs. grain harvested) x (108.538) / (row length, ft.) / (row width, in.) / (# rows harvested) = bu./A of sorghum at 14% moisture |
|
|
| Storage Capacity (corn, soybeans, and sorghum) |
|
| Round bin |
(bin diameter, ft.) x (bin diameter, ft.) x (depth, ft.) x (.6283) = bu. stored |
| Rectangular storage |
(width, ft.) x (length, ft.) x (depth, ft.) x (.8) = bu. stored |
