About This Product
In agricultural science classes the meter gives a quick moisture reading on a grain sample, so students can compare crops such as maize and wheat or follow how a stored sample dries. It replaces the slower oven-drying method for routine checks, and a needle probe can be pushed into a sack to test grain below the surface.
