I have a 42' long 96" wide hopper with 72" side walls. I need to know if I can get on a full load of oats.

I would think it would all depend on the weight of the oats I have a 78 inch high and on 35 pound oats I have to be chucked full to get a load but last year hauling out of Canada 44 pound notes was very easy

Ag hopper vs standard hopper would make a difference too. Last year I pulled a 42x96x66 low side with standard hoppers and didn't have any problem getting 26 ton on, which equals 1625 bu. It was pretty full, but not so full I couldn't still tarp easily. However they were out of an elevator and I don't recall how heavy the oats were--good heavy test weight helps more than anything. We have a hard time growing them much over 32 lbs around here anymore, for some reason.

Sorry guys but finally see a topic on this form that makes some sense with just a little change.

Full load of used Oates.

Going to check if Dear Abby is still on.
