Feds Give Savormetrics Funds to Develop Grain Quality Devices

Savormetrics Inc. has received up to $1.1 million, through the Canadian Agricultural Partnership, under the AgriScience Program, to develop portable devices to track metrics on grain quality along the supply chain, a March 16 news release says.

“We are very proud to provide cutting edge AI-Driven devices for commercial testing of grains – thanks to the generous financial support from the Government of Canada,” Harjeet Bajaj, CEO of Savormetrics, says in the release. “It makes sense for Canada to pioneer standards that lead to innovative, more robust and environmentally greener tools for testing. Savormetrics hopes to establish a new standard for testing key grain quality metrics globally.”

The new technology will provide consistent, reliable and transparent grain information in real-time, resulting in less food waste and an improved testing and grading process, the release says. With the integration of these new innovative devices, farmers will be supported with additional tools to help them overcome inconsistent grain information.
