TeleSense

TeleSense is leading the post-harvest data revolution. Using their advanced suite of sensors, they provide grain managers with actionable insights about their stored grain, so that they can make storage decisions easily, quickly, and accurately. Their easy-to-use sensors continuously monitor grain, and will automatically send issue alerts to the TeleSense App on your computer, smartphone, or tablet. TeleSense also retrofits traditional temperature cables to make them wireless. Imagine never having to manually check your cables again, and having that information available 24/7, right at your fingertips.
