Non-destructive detection of moisture content in Orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerate L.) silage in wrapped round bales using microstrip transmission line sensor and its transmitted microwaves
This paper demonstrates a non-destructive method for measuring the moisture content of silage in wrapped round bales (WRBs) via microwave signals using a microstrip transmission line (MSTL) sensor and vector network analyzer under outdoor conditions. We analyzed the relationships between the amplitude changes (Δα) and phase shifts (Δφ) of the microwave-transmitted signals from the WRB surfaces without tearing their films. The press MSTL method was strongly suggested over the touch MSTL method for the non-destructive measurement of WRB qualities. We also obtained strongly negative and significant correlations between the slopes of the linear regression lines (Δφ–Δα ratios) and moisture contents for frequencies in the range of 3.6–6.2 GHz. Thus, in this frequency zone, the press MSTL method can be effectively used to determine the moisture content of silage in WRBs.

期刊介绍:
Grassland Science is the official English language journal of the Japanese Society of Grassland Science. It publishes original research papers, review articles and short reports in all aspects of grassland science, with an aim of presenting and sharing knowledge, ideas and philosophies on better management and use of grasslands, forage crops and turf plants for both agricultural and non-agricultural purposes across the world. Contributions from anyone, non-members as well as members, are welcome in any of the following fields:
grassland environment, landscape, ecology and systems analysis;
pasture and lawn establishment, management and cultivation;
grassland utilization, animal management, behavior, nutrition and production;
forage conservation, processing, storage, utilization and nutritive value;
physiology, morphology, pathology and entomology of plants;
breeding and genetics;
physicochemical property of soil, soil animals and microorganisms and plant
nutrition;
economics in grassland systems.
