Title
Bulk Density Changes Effected by Insect-Produced Dust in Sound Wheat, Grain Sorghum and Corn
Carl Reed; George A. Milliken Transactions of the ASAE 1988. doi:10.13031/2013.30692
Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Insect-produced dust at 0.4 percent reduced grain bulk density by about 0.5 to 1.0 percent compared with undamaged grain.
- Method / resource A weight loss estimate based on bulk density change substantially overestimated weight loss from Rhyzopertha dominica in wheat.
- Association Repeated manipulation consistently increased the bulk density of wheat.
- Association Repeated manipulation had little effect on the bulk density of corn.
