Running empty mid-pass costs time, fuel and yield. SeedSight solves it with a clear, glanceable indicator of how much material is left in your hopper—whether that’s seed, fertiliser or other dry granules. It installs quickly, calibrates in seconds, runs directly from your tractor’s trailer socket (no batteries), and costs £149.
What is SeedSight?
SeedSight is a compact hopper content detector designed to mount on the top of a bin or hopper. It gives operators an instant visual cue of remaining contents so you can schedule top-ups before you run dry. It’s built to be straightforward: drill, mount, plug in, calibrate, go.
How SeedSight works (step-by-step)
- Mount – Drill 5 holes in the hopper lid: 4 for the mounting points and 1 for the sensor. Place SeedSight over the holes and secure.
- Power – Plug SeedSight into the tractor’s trailer socket. There’s no internal battery to charge or replace.
- Calibrate – With an empty hopper, press “Low.” Fill to your normal full level and press “High.”
- Operate – The optical indicator provides an at-a-glance view of remaining contents while you work.
Key benefits
- Zero surprises: Prevents mid-row run-outs and rework.
- Better field efficiency: Time top-ups for headlands or natural pauses.
- Consistent application: Helps maintain even sowing and fertiliser distribution across the field.
- No batteries, no faff: Draws power from the tractor—one less thing to maintain.
- Fits your kit: Suitable for seed drills, air seeders, fertiliser spreaders, chaser bins and storage containers.
Fast, practical installation
SeedSight is deliberately uncomplicated. A simple five-hole mounting pattern means you don’t need custom brackets or specialist tools. Once mounted, the two-button calibration stores your empty and full reference points—so operators can trust the indicator at a glance.
Designed for real farm work
Farm days are long and conditions vary. SeedSight’s simple optical readout is visible and immediate, helping operators keep an eye on levels without breaking concentration. With no batteries involved, performance is consistent from the first job of the season to the last.
Where SeedSight shines
- Cereals & oilseeds: Keep drills charged and avoid thin patches from late-pass run-outs.
- Fertiliser application: Plan refills to maintain target rates across the field.
- On-farm storage: Use on bins and hoppers to monitor reserves at a glance.
Price:£149Ideal for: Seed hoppers, fertiliser hoppers, chaser bins, storage containers, and more.

(If you’re working with unusual materials or non-standard hopper designs, get in touch to confirm compatibility.)
Installation & calibration tips
- Mark and drill carefully on a flat, rigid section of the lid for best sensor alignment.
- Calibrate “High” to the normal operating full level you actually use in the field.
- If switching materials (e.g., wheat to OSR to fertiliser), re-check calibration for optimal accuracy.
- Periodically clear dust buildup around the indicator window to keep it easy to read.
FAQs
Does SeedSight need batteries or charging?
No. It runs from your tractor’s trailer socket, so there are no batteries to charge or replace.
How do I calibrate it?
Press “Low” with an empty hopper, then fill to your usual full level and press “High.” Done.
Will it work with different seeds and fertilisers?
Yes—SeedSight is designed for common dry, granular materials. For edge cases (very fine powders, unusually reflective/absorbent materials, etc.), contact us to confirm.
Can I install it myself?
Yes. The five-hole mounting is straightforward for most farm workshops. If you’d prefer, your local machinery dealer can fit it.
