Estimate combine harvest loss from grain collected in a measured sample area and compare it with field yield.
This weight-based method scales a measured loss sample to one hectare, then compares the loss with the entered field yield. It avoids crop-specific kernel-count assumptions.
An 80 g loss sample from 10 m² equals 80 kg/ha. At a 5 t/ha field yield, that is about 1.6% loss.
Treat the calculated values as a planning estimate. Compare them with your field records, product information, local conditions and operational capacity before acting.
It converts the weight of grain found in a measured ground area into kilograms per hectare, then compares that loss with the field yield you enter.
A weight-based sample can be used across crops without relying on crop-specific kernels-per-bushel or seed-count assumptions, provided the sample area is measured accurately.
It depends on where and how you collect the sample. To diagnose combine performance, measure losses consistently and separate pre-harvest/header loss from machine loss where possible.
Yes. Enter an optional crop price per tonne to estimate the field value associated with the calculated grain loss.
