The moisture content can be calculated by weighing the fruit and then placing it in a drying oven for a definite period of time then removing and weighing again. If you continue this until there is no more loss of weight. The initial weight minus the final weight is the weight of water. this difference multiplied by 100 and divided by the initial weight will give you the percent moisture content.
