Moisture in barley, corn, grain sorghum, and wheat was determined for two crop years by methods based on oven air-drying and pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance (PNMR) spectroscopy. The PNMR method was satisfactory for determining from 15 to 40% moisture. Calibration requirements for moisture determinations by PNMR in naturally high moisture grain differed from those for conditioned high moisture grain.
