Why It Matters

Aquaculture operations face a unique set of challenges:

  • Remote farm locations with limited visibility
  • Centralised feed storage (e.g. barges, bulk silos)
  • High cost of feed and logistics
  • Risk of feeding interruptions
  • Manual checks that are time-consuming and sometimes unsafe

Without accurate visibility, operators are forced to rely on estimates, manual inspections, and reactive delivery planning.

The GrainSure Solution

GrainSure combines non-contact level sensors, connectivity, and a cloud platform to deliver:

  • Real-time feed levels

    Know exactly how much feed is in every silo or hopper - anytime, anywhere.

  • Days-to-empty forecasting

    Understand how long your feed will last based on consumption patterns.

  • Low-level alerts

    Avoid stockouts with configurable alerts before critical levels are reached.

  • Multi-site visibility

    Monitor all farms, barges, and storage points in one place.

  • Safe, hands-off operation

    No need for manual checks or climbing - everything is monitored remotely.

Built for Aquaculture Environments

GrainSure is designed to operate in demanding conditions:

  • Salt air and marine exposure
  • Vibration (e.g. feed barges)
  • Dust and pellet movement during feeding
  • Remote locations with variable connectivity

Our sensors are mounted externally and require no contact with feed, ensuring reliability and low maintenance.

Typical Deployment

GrainSure can be installed across:

  • Feed Barges

    • Twin or multi-compartment silos
    • Centralised storage feeding multiple pens
    • Integration with blower-based delivery systems

  • Land-based Silos

    • Hatcheries and freshwater facilities
    • Bulk feed storage at processing or staging sites

  • Intermediate Hoppers

    • Day bins or feeder systems closer to pens

Designed for multi-compartment feed systems

GrainSure supports both:

  • Monitoring individual compartments within a silo
  • Aggregated monitoring across twin or grouped silos

This provides flexibility depending on how your operation manages feed types and logistics.

Operational Benefits

  • Avoid Feeding Disruptions

    Ensure feed is always available where and when it’s needed.

  • Fishing boats near barges

    Improve Delivery Planning

    Schedule replenishment based on actual consumption and remaining stock.

  • Fish farm with barge

    Reduce Waste & Variability

    Identify anomalies in feed usage and improve consistency.

  • Fish farm worker

    Save Time & Improve Safety

    Eliminate manual checks and reduce site visits.

  • From Estimation To Certainty

    Traditional feed management relies on assumptions.

    GrainSure replaces this with measured, real-time data, enabling:

    • Better operational decisions
    • Increased confidence across teams
    • Scalable management across multiple sites

  • Proven In Bulk Feed Environments

    GrainSure is already deployed across hundreds of feed storage systems, delivering:

    • Reliable level measurement in bulk materials
    • Accurate trend and consumption insights
    • Scalable monitoring across distributed operations

  • Start Anywhere, Scale Everywhere

    You don’t need to instrument everything at once.

    Start with a pilot on a single barge or site, then scale across your operation as value is proven.
