Abstract
A measuring device for measuring components of a crop material is installed on an agricultural machine and includes at least one conductance sensor, determining the component 'moisture content', which is determined via the temperature-compensated detection of conductance. In this manner it is ensured that the measuring device delivers reliable measurement results for determining the components of a crop material even under fluctuating measuring conditions.
