[QUOTE="Two Tone, post: 3508190, member: 44728"] I'd say it's about 12% in wheat or winter barley. But in weight it'd be more because it's the wettest straw. I can assure you that you don't want to bale this straw because it is wet and has to be left to dry before you can bale it. So you bale sooner but with less and drier straw. You cart less, stack less and need less to litter a yard because it has a greater absorbency level. On top of which you are returning more organic matter to the field by not removing it as bales.
