HARVEST LOSS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
STOP GUESSING HOW MUCH GRAIN IS HITTING THE GROUND. START MEASURING IT.
Most uncalibrated combines are leaving 2–5 bu/ac in the field. The SmartPan System pairs a patented magnetic drop pan with the SmartDrop™ app so you can calibrate in minutes. Durable, easy to use, and proven in real-world conditions, the SmartPan System is the most trusted method for managing harvest loss.

*Independent on-farm testing by the Canola Council of Canada and PAMI measured average combine losses of 1.3 bu/ac, with losses as high as 4.1 bu/ac in poorly calibrated machines. Source: Canola Council of Canada
†Iowa State University Extension has noted growers can reduce corn losses to roughly 1 bu/ac or less when combine performance is regularly checked and adjusted.
‡Based on customer-reported results — some growers have seen payback in as little as a quarter section; actual results vary by operation.

DO THE MATH
CHECK YOUR ROI AND PROFIT POTENTIAL
What is grain loss really costing you?
Enter a few numbers from your harvest to see the dollars slipping out the back of your combine — and how fast a BranValt product pays for itself.
WHY FARMERS RUN IT
FOUR REASONS THE SMARTPAN PAYS FOR ITSELF
The system is built around one job — turning grain loss into a number you can act on — and it pays back in four distinct ways.
more profit
- Farmers report payback within a single season, field, or even hours of use
- Recover 2–5+ bu/ac — real dollars back in your pocket
- Less volunteer crop and lower input costs post-harvest
more time
- Easy to mount magnetically, fast to drop remotely
- Air Separator delivers a clean sample in minutes
- The app does the fast math and logs your results
more safety
- Remote drop replaces throwing a pan or using a shovel
- Keeps you and your crew clear of moving equipment
more confidence
- Covered design prevents sample contamination; Steel pan prevents tipping
- The most trusted sampling method across North America and around the world
- Works in Dropping or Spread mode — your call
THE PROCESS
FOUR STEPS TO MORE GRAIN IN THE BIN
You can save thousands of dollars a season taking out guesswork — mount it, then drop, separate, and calculate every time you want a read on loss or to dial in your loss sensors and automation.
1
Attach the magnetic drop pan to any combine
2
Release the drop pan using the Remote or SmartDrop app
3
Clean the sample with the BranValt Air Separator
THE CASE FOR CHECKING
WHY CHECK FOR HARVEST LOSS AT ALL?
MORE GRAIN IN THE BIN
You’ve already spent the season and the money growing this crop. Your yield pays the bills — a drop-pan check tells you how much of it is actually reaching the tank instead of staying in the field. You can only manage what you measure.
PRECISION & EFFICIENCY
You already calibrate seeders, planters, and sprayers for precision. Your combine deserves the same attention — it’s the single biggest lever on what you actually keep.
LOSS SENSORS NEED A BASELINE
A loss sensor without drop-pan data is a tape measure with no lines on it. Plus – combine automation software requires ground-truth calibration with a drop pan. Watch why benchmarking matters →
EQUIPMENT
