Colour Sorting: Why Should You Use It?

Colour sorting should be used when a traditional seed cleaning can’t remove the impurities. These impurities can effect the grade and seed performance. We use Sortex colour sorter that can help to remove foreign material, reduce toxins and  off-colour seeds. We can colour sort pulses, cereals and oliseeds.
