CROPSCANAG – CropScan Grain Analyzer

CropScanAg provides the industry leading solution in Near Infrared On Combine Grain Analysis, incredibly accurate real-time grain quality data. This includes protein, moisture, oil, and starch depending on the grain being harvested. The system will analyze virtually any grain grown in North America and beyond. The technology allows farmers to make data-driven decisions immediately during harvest and later through our N-GAUGE app with various detailed maps showing nitrogen use efficiency, removal amounts, yield maps, and other datasets.

GERINGHOFF CANADA -Intigrated Air System (IAS)

The Integrated Air System (IAS) by Geringhoff reduces crop loss and maximizes yield by gently blowing air through tubes behind the cutter bar, directing seeds onto the draper belt. Unlike competitor products, IAS is fully integrated, eliminating the need for after-market external tube systems that can obstruct crop flow. Developed for the global market, it effectively reduces losses in all crops, especially in straight-cut crops like lentils and canola.

PATHOSCAN – Pathobox

PathoScan specializes in real-time, in-field crop disease detection, empowering farmers to make timely, cost-effective decisions that optimize yields and reduce chemical inputs. Our innovative technology combines AI-driven diagnostics with user-friendly hardware to provide fast, accurate disease insights for more sustainable agriculture.
