Research on Measurement of Grass’s Moisture Content with Microwave Oven Method

Abstract:

In the process of working, storage, finished fodder acceptance and the preservation process of grass materials, the moisture content of forage is a very important indicator. The blast oven drying method has been generally adopted in the measurement of moisture content. The related experiment showed that the microwave oven method for grass moisture content measuring improved 200-400 times in the efficiency compared with blast oven drying method. The microwave oven method was accurate and easy operating. So, we can conclude that microwave oven method is a viable method for measuring the moisture content.
