The quantity of wood burned over the same time period (21 hr) equaled 33 cords (120 m3). Assuming a wood density of approximately 500 kg/m3 (e.g., for pinewood), the weight of 33 cords would be approximately 60,000 kg, for a wood-to-carcass ratio of approximately 1.5:1 and a total throughput of 5.5 tons (5,000 kg) of carcasses plus wood per hour. <br /><br />So the estimate there is a 1.5:1 ratio for that burning - and a burning rate of 5000 kg per hour (carcasses plus wood).<br /><br />I would've estimated heavier pigs from what you wrote here.blake121666https://www.blogger.com/profile/07355647679491593871noreply@blogger.com
