High Moisture Shell Corn Pricing App For Android Now Available.

It’s that time of the year when some cattle feeders and or cow calf producers may be looking to buy or sell some high moisture shell corn from or to other farmers.

Pricing Wet (HMSC) Corn is a new free app for Android “smart” phones/tablets that can be helpful for determining a reasonable sale price.

The app is based off a spreadsheet developed by former UW-Extension specialist and educators (Campbell, Key, Frank, Schneider) to help determine an equivalent value for wet shell corn when compared with a dry shell corn price (a link to current local elevator dry corn bid prices is built into the app). 

The equivalent “wet” price is then calculated and displayed in both price per ton, as well as price per bushel.  Additional costs for drying (gas or electric) and/or shelling can also be evaluated under the expense tab.  The app also features direct email of results to the grower/client, or even your own desktop computer. The HMSC$ app is now available on Google Play store (search for HMSC), or by using the following link on your Android device:
