Farmpoint Grain Moisture Meter For Farmers and Traders


The original Supertech moisture meter for grain and seeds

The Farmpoint moisture meter is the original Supertech product designed to measure the moisture level of grain and seeds. It provides essential assistance in the field when determining the best time for harvesting and is also used for regular moisture measurement during the drying process and in storage.

If grain is harvested wetter than necessary, the consequences are not only extra drying costs but also a significantly increased risk of quality loss and spoilage.


Quick and accurate moisture measurement

  • Handy, robust and easy to operate

  • Reliable results

  • Automatic temperature compensation

  • Automatic calculation of average value

  • High measuring range

  • Adjustment of calibrations

  • High quality – low price

  • Two year warranty

  • Designed and produced in Denmark

Easy to operate

The Farmpoint moisture meter is a robust tool supplied in a casing made of shockproof ABS plastic. It can be safely transported on the tractor, in the granary, etc.



The Farmpoint Moisture Meter:

Simple to use in four easy steps:

Portable and reliable companion

Effective grain storage is essential to maintain crop quality and prevent losses. Reliable moisture management is vital to ensure an optimal storage environment.

Farmpoint moisture meter is the original whole grain moisture meter that operates using high frequency measurement, compression of the sample and automatic temperature compensation, for more reliable results.


The failproof design makes it easy to test the grain whenever and wherever.

Principle of measurement

The Farmpoint moisture meter measures the conductivity and temperature of a grain sample. The exact moisture value is calculated by means of an advanced measurement technique, developed through many years of hands-on experience.

The compression and automatic temperature compensation features, ensure high reliability of the Farmpoint moisture meter for moisture management of grain in the field, during the drying process and in storage.


Average readings

The changing nature of grain when harvested or dried makes average readings a significant advantage. Freshly harvested grain often has greater variability compared to grain stored for some time. Errors are frequently ±0.5% and can be bigger in very wet, very dry or freshly harvested grain.

The Farmpoint moisture meter can be used to quickly make several separate measurements. Four to five readings will automatically be used to calculate a reliable average value. By using average and calibration adjustment the accuracy can be better than ±0.5%, in the normal moisture range.


To adjust the calibration of the Farmpoint Moisture Meter

Farmpoint moisture meter is factory-calibrated for every crop, using the official methods of measuring moisture content as compiled by ISTA (International Seed Testing Association). The calibration scales are compiled using samples of crops grown in normal conditions. Differing growth factors between years and varieties can have an effect on the electrical characteristics of the crop. It can therefore be necessary to occasionally recalibrate the meter.
