R-110.40.041 [2016-03] Moisture Content in Barley – Conductivity Measurement

Application/Purpose

This method describes how to determine the moisture content of barley. The amount of moisture in barley is relevant for its long-term storage. Moisture contents less than 14 % are considered favorable, below 12 % is better.

Scope of Application

Prior to storage, the moisture content of barley must be determined.

Principle

Measurement of the electrical resistance in the ground and pressed sample
