Death comes to us all. Life's but a walking shadow
In 2009 I had a field of late wet corn combined at 35% moisture. By the time it was dried the the test weight was 49 lbs/bu. When I sold it by weight but priced it by 56 lb bushels there was 12.5 % less.
This past year the test weight was 58-59 lb/bu I sold 5% more corn than I had in the bin.
