The overall purpose of the project is to develop a new crop yield sensor. This project involves the development of calibration procedures for a microwave-based grain flow and moisture sensor. The sensor will be used to measure real time grain yield and moisture on a combine.
Grains being used in the study are corn, wheat, and soybeans.
The project will be expanded to include use of the sensor on green chopped forage. 1996 Regents of the University of Minnesota. All Rights Reserved. The University of Minnesota is an equal opportunity educator and employer.
