Pprovides empirical equations to adjust forage harvester feed rates and specific energy measurements to a common crop moisture level of 65% wet basis. The crop moisture compensation equations in this Engineering Practice significantly decrease data scatter as a function of moisture content when compared to data scatter on a wet or dry mass basis.
