Subject: how much high moisture corn in a bunk



south central WI

Our first year putting corn in a bunk.  We have extra corn so added 37' onto the bunk.  At 105' is it at the top of the 12' wall.  At its peak it is about 15' tall and a blade wide...14'.  I figure it averages close to 14' deep for 90' or so and slopes down in front and back.  12' wall in back and sides.

So basically how much hmc at 34% is in a bunker 38' wide, 90' long and 14' deep plus a ramp on one side?

Yield monitor says one number but had coop out to do a yield check and their number was quite higher, about 10%.  We didn't calibrate this year as corn is so high in moisture the meter is pretty inaccurate...plus too busy to care actually.

Planning on feeding 550-600 cows 20-21 lbs a day at 33% moisture.
