Straw Yield is the weight of vegetative plant parts
(stem, leaves, chaff) excluding grain,
expressed per unit area (kg/ha or q/ha).
Formula Used
Straw Yield (kg/ha) =
(Straw weight per plot × 10,000) ÷ Plot area (m²)
Where:
• Straw weight = Sun-dried straw from sample plot (kg)
• Plot area = Area of harvested plot (m²)
Enter Field Data
Field Tip:
• Use oven-dry or sun-dry straw consistently
• Remove grain completely before weighing
• Straw yield is essential for fodder & residue studies
