    Takes a bit of time but well worth it .

      FYI A good investment is a divider to divide samples down evenly. A representative sample is the most important part of grading and maintaining that representation is very important. Grain is non homogeneous and separates by size and weight every time it moves. Even in a pail. Dimo's tool &Die/labtronics in WPG has good ones and is at most farm shows.

        Wheat all #1 13.5, Canola easy all #1 zero green, just chitted barley, eyes are so different at each buyer. 9% - 32% same very accurate average sample. Conundrum. How to contract that mess.

          I got my results from CGC for my durum - the local elevator actually graded it higher than CGC for once. Like the John Deere service guys say when your combine breaks down, "Never seen that before!"
