We, at SGL, are a system provider for soil and plant health with over forty years of experience. Evolving from a rural trading company and seed multiplication operation, we offer products and knowledge for sustainable agriculture.

Our focus lies in advising and imparting knowledge with actionable recommendations for daily work in the fields. Our own farming operations and experiments provide us with valuable agronomic insights and strategies. Furthermore, we produce high-quality cereal seeds for farmers and the trade.

After correctly positioning the base station and amplifier, the system has been working flawlessly from the start. We use the system to monitor the temperature of the grain in our flat storage facilities at the Erftstadt site. This involves approximately 7,000 tons of seed grain, which is processed to high quality seed, as well as around 5,000 tons of consumer grain, which we mainly sell to mills.

Yes, the probes are robust and have functioned without incidents. We mainly use 300 cm probes at 4-5m bulk height. The good thing is that they measure at multiple points along the probe.

Yes, absolutely. The hourly measurements and alarms have helped us efficiently control the ventilation, turning it on and off as needed. This allowed us to optimize energy consumption, react quickly to any deviations, and maintain the high quality of the product.

With the virtual warehousing and regular temperature data in the app, we have constant oversight of the temperature distribution in our warehouses.

Absolutely. We received excellent guidance from the outset, conducting various tests on our premises with Mrs. Tanda before purchasing the system and verifying signal strengths. Similarly, we had a contact person available during the system's initialization who could answer all our questions.

Definitely. It saves money and time. Previously, an employee had to walk around daily, climb onto the grain piles, manually measure and record temperatures. Now, this employee can attend to other tasks—there's always plenty to do!

Another useful aspect for us is the ability to export temperature data. This facilitates our reporting for quality certification.
