Test methodology for measuring the moisture of a sample at the outlet of a dryer

Why measure moisture accurately? Grain drying is a critical step in harvesting.

Grain that is too dry results in weight loss and therefore loss of income. Grain that is too wet, on the other hand, carries the risk of penalties, mold, or heating in the bin. The challenge intensifies when the grain leaves the dryer, as its moisture content is not uniform.
