> New Color
Sorter Added
Prairie Brand Seed took a big step forward in
ensuring our leadership role in providing farmers with the highest
quality seed in the industry. A new electronic optical sorter was
installed at Sansgaard’s Story City, Iowa facility.
This state of the art sorting machine uses multiple high resolution
cameras and infrared scanners to view the seed from the front and
the back allowing for the removal of defects smaller than .3mm. Contaminants
such as foreign material, discolored kernels, immature seed, downy
mildew infected seed and other crop seeds will now be kicked out
with the color sorter’s advanced
technology.
“Prairie
Brand Seed is committed to providing our customers with maximum value for their
seed dollars,” states Brian Sansgaard, Prairie Brand Seed President, “and
our new optical sorter puts us in a lead position for delivering on this promise.”
