The Agratronix MT-16 Grain Moisture Tester (Part No. 08155) is a dependable handheld instrument that delivers fast, accurate moisture readings for whole grains during harvest, drying, and storage management. It provides direct digital readouts across 16 calibrated grain scales—including low- and high-moisture corn, soft and hard wheat, soybeans, sorghum, oats, canola, barley, rye, beans, paddy rice, flax, safflower, sunflower oilseed, and sunflower confect—plus an arbitrary scale, with each scale fully adjustable to match local elevator results. Featuring a high-frequency capacitive circuit with automatic temperature compensation, the unit averages up to 99 test results for consistency and offers a moisture range of 5% to 40% (depending on the grain tested), temperature range of 32°F to 113°F (0°C to 45°C), ±0.5% accuracy and repeatability in the normal stored-grain range, and 0.1% display resolution. Trusted by the USDA Federal Crop Insurance Field Office, it includes a protective carrying case with shoulder strap for convenient field use (9V battery required, not included), making the MT-16 an affordable, versatile solution for farmers and grain handlers seeking precise moisture control to safeguard crop quality and maximize returns.
