Grain Monitoring System

Why is Monitoring Grain Moisture Important?

Feeding the growing global population requires constant food quality and safety monitoring to ensure food security. Grain is the most commonly consumed food product, feeding both humans and livestock.

Moisture can ruin entire stocks of grain if not monitored correctly. Even if it appears dry on the surface, moisture can exist deep within the grain. If left unchecked, moisture can lead to mold development, insect infestation, fermentation, loss of freshness, germination, odor development, and discoloration. It can also lead to problems with reduced yields.
