How Moisture Register Products instruments are useful to these agencies

Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies often have the responsibility to see that growers receive fair compensation for crops grown and delivered to processors. Growers are paid for their crops on a weight basis, so that if the crop is delivered wet, the processor can deduct a part of the payment to account for the additional moisture that is being purchased. The grower, of course, wants to receive the maximum dollars possible. In the cotton industry, the farmers are also paid based on the output in pounds (yield) for their crops after processing. In all cases, these agencies need an accurate, reliable, online or portable moisture analyzer to help in the determination of the proper moisture levels so that fair compensation can be accomplished. Moisture Register has long supplied meters to these and other industries to satisfy this need. In some cases, MRP meters are the only approved moisture testing device for a particular industry.

These reliable, real-time moisture meters will also improve quality control and increase production. They will better focus a targeted moisture content distribution while eliminating product over-drying. A reduction in energy consumption is often realized along with increased profits through sales of highest allowable moisture content. A significant reduction in rejected product, rework, or scrap can be realized, along with a decrease in the need for manual laboratory testing. These benefits come with a moisture analysis and control system that will return its own cost in just a matter of months, with very low years-to-payout and a high rate of return.
