For U.S. crop producers, elevators, and processors, mycotoxins represent a multi-billion-dollar annual threat. The current approach is a costly cycle of testing, guesswork and loss.
GrainRate™ is a revolutionary agricultural risk management agentic system that leverages highly specialized AI agents to predict mycotoxin contamination risks and optimize storage or offloading decisions. By combining real-time environmental data analysis and leveraging the most advanced AI vision capabilities with intelligent decision-making, our agentic system helps farmers, grain elevators, and agricultural processors minimize losses and maximize crop value.

How It Works
GrainRate™ operates through a coordinated network of two specialized AI agents that work in concert to provide end-to-end risk management.
Agent 1

Mycotoxin Prediction Risk Analyzer Agent
Analyzes and predicts contamination risks
Agent 2

Storage Arbitrageur Agent
Intelligently routes crops based on contamination risk levels, optimizing storage and processing decisions
This agent is your digital agronomist. As environmental conditions play a major role in the development of mycotoxin production, it analyzes multiple environmental data streams to calculate real-time mycotoxin risk scores:
-
Drought monitoring and indices
-
Soil moisture anomalies
-
Temperature anomaly tracking
-
Precipitation forecasting and outlooks
-
Crop stage vulnerability assessments
Key Features:
-
Real-time risk scoring (0-1 scale) for corn, wheat, soybeans, and peanuts
-
Multi-factor weighted analysis tailored to each crop type
-
Automated email notification reporting and threshold alerts for high-risk crops
-
Integration-ready JSON outputs for system interoperability
Considering your operation's location, the agent synergistically analyzes the environmental data against your specific crop type and growth stage. It doesn't just report data; it calculates a precise, dynamic risk score (0-1), telling you not just if you're at risk, but how much and why.
When a potentially high risk crop is identified,
this agent is triggered and activates as your logistics strategist. It evaluates all available post-harvest pathways:
-
Matching salvageable high-risk loads with nearest specialized drying facilities.
-
Identifying optimal, cost-effective storage.
-
Calculating the value of alternative routing (e.g., alternative markets - ethanol plants).
-
Ethanol plant routing options for unsalvageable contaminated product / alternative market offloading
-
Cost-benefit optimization of storage vs. alternative processing options
-
Producer decision support via direct email recommendations reporting
Key Features:
-
USDA-approved warehouse database integration
-
Transportation logistics optimization
-
US Ethanol biorefineries/producers database integration
-
Recommended negotiation protocols for high-risk batches
-
Direct email notifications to producers with actionable recommendations, mandating "Human-in-the-Loop" approval for high-impact decisions
It doesn't just find options; it ranks them by cost, risk mitigation, and ROI, delivering a clear, actionable plan straight to your inbox.
