As with any yield monitoring system you must calibrate it for each crop with actual harvested bushels and moisture. Its best for accuracy to use a cetified elevator scale and cert moisture meter to get the value to make the calibrations.

Pick any crop and do a moisture and a flow calibration. After that just tell it what crop you are threshing and the comp will do the rest. Only have to do it once at the beginning of the year

Wrong!!!!!! This is the biggest advantage f NH meter you haw to do it only one time par season and it does works for all crops (I'w done that).

The New Holland yield monitor is the same as the CaseIH, which is the same as the Ag leader. Ag leader is the developer and manufacturer of the yield sensory technology found on NH, CIH and Al systems, as well as the logic that goes into the processing of yield information. Thus, all three calibrate the same, requiring calibration for wet and dry crop conditions.

The newest New Holland and I asume the newest CIH ( such as in the 8010 ) is not the Ag leader. It uses a single cabibration number, established at your highest grain flow ( such as corn ). The moisture sensor is similar, but it was purchased by Al from I another company, that does not make much difference.

Nel, after reading the comments I sugest you get with a NH tech rep to explain it factually. I had a CR940 all last summer and had very good luck with it. Only one minor idler pulley bearing on the serpentine belt failed. I used it some 200 hours, and was very!!! happy. I was runnig along side my TR-99. If I were to buy one I would put a Ag leader yield monitor on it. Not becuase Al is better, but the NH info monitor needs to be watching machine peformance such as rotor loss, grain loss, volume of retailings, percent of power being used, etc. The Al could then monitor theyield functions. The calibration of the NH is easy and was quite accurate even with calibrating with one crop-wheat. You can e-mail tech support too for info and advise. Don

Really, I'm surprised by that. I can see it working on corn and beans where test weight almost never varies but I wonder about wheat. If you used beans to calibrate it that is. Around here our soft red winter wheat can run from 52lbs in a wet year to only occassionally 60lbs per bushel in a good year. Also alot of variation in varieties.
