Equilibrium Moisture Content
(EMC) Calculator
Our EMC calculator can help determine your grain EMC and optimize the moisture content of your stored grain.

At OPI, we go by the old saying: “if that grain is sold by weight, water is money.” So why not capture the maximum allowable moisture content when selling your grain? There are a number of ways to achieve this:
- Harvest earlier at higher moisture contents, which helps you control the dry-down process between the drier and in the bin in order to dry down to the ideal moisture content at the lowest energy cost.
- Operate fans solely for the purpose of quality control with zero tolerance on shrink.
- Rehydrate when possible—given the right climatic conditions and sufficient airflow, time and the appropriate strategy should grain become drier than target.
- Establish the most efficient conditioning program with an automated grain conditioning solution.
