The problem
Buying by eye, you pay for what you can’t see
We know what a bad lot costs a plant: drying bills, rejected batches and production delays.
Wet maize
2.3 t
of water paid for in every 100 t bought at 16% moisture instead of 14%.
Hidden damage
22%
of maize is lost in the sales pipeline when quality goes unchecked.
Price by bargaining
Without evidence, every lot becomes a negotiation.
