A method includes determining a mass of a hay bale, determining a moisture content of the hay bale, determining an ash content of the hay bale, calculating a corrected yield of the hay bale, and labeling the hay bale with an indicator of the corrected yield. The corrected yield is based on the mass, the moisture content, and the ash content of the hay bale.
