What Does Loss of Grain Really Mean?

Given a grain yield of e.g. 5000 kg per hectare, a grain loss of 1% can mean a loss of 50 kg.

When a combine operates with a grain loss of 4% due to incorrect adjustments, this means that 200 kg of grain is lost per hectare.

The examples show that thirty minutes spent in carrying out correct combine adjustments repays itself many times, as the above figures for just one hectare show.
