Crop Calculators

Crop Calculators is an Android app that lets corn growers calculate grain yields, maturity dates, and silage price adjustments using their smartphone or tablet.

Crop Calculators has three corn crop calculators:

Silage Moisture Cost Adjuster for Corn

-This calculator compares a negotiated price for silage and adjusts the price, taking into account how much moisture is present.

-Simply enter the negotiated moisture and price, along with the actual moisture content, and the adjusted price will be calculated.

-Calculations are cleared when you close the app. To create and share a report of your calculation, use the “Email report” button provided.

Maturity Date Predictor for Corn

-When you enter a tassel date, date ranges for 50% kernel milk and black layer will be calculated.

-If you then enter a frost date, these date ranges will change color to indicate whether the frost will occur before or after the date range.

-Green indicates that the predicted frost occurs after the beginning of the range and you’re in the clear. Red indicates that the frost occurs before the range.

-Calculations are cleared when you close the app. To create and share a report of your calculation, use the “Email report” button provided.

Grain Yield Estimator for Corn

-First, enter the density of your field in plants per 1000th acre.

-The next three inputs are suggested values, but should be adjusted throughout the growing season.
