Mooij Agro Launches Croptimiz-r MAX: Next-Gen Controller for Smart, Energy-Efficient Potato Storage

Mooij Agro, a global expert in crop storage automation, launches Croptimiz-r MAX: the company’s newest all-in-one controller. As the upgraded successor to the proven Croptimiz-r, Croptimiz-r MAX offers a future-ready platform with significant improvements in speed, usability and performance. Designed to control all storage processes, up to 16 cells in the same time.

Built for the preservation of potatoes, onions, and other crops, the controller offers full control over the storage climate, automating ventilation, temperature and airflow to maintain optimal conditions 24/7. From day one to dispatch, Croptimiz-r MAX helps protect crop quality, prevent losses and reduce energy use.

Smarter storage climate control for better crop quality

Croptimiz-r MAX interface providing real-time monitoring and control of multiple crop storage facilities.

Croptimiz-r MAX gives growers full, automated control over their storage climate. The system continuously monitors temperature, humidity and airflow, and adjusts ventilation, heating and cooling based on real-time sensor data. This prevents issues like condensation, over-drying and temperature fluctuations, and protects crop quality throughout the entire storage cycle.

The powerful controller combines trusted system architecture with next-generation hardware, including a 12-inch intuitive touchscreen, secure remote access via app, and a completely redesigned user interface for faster navigation and easier operation. 

It also features a new look & feel, a faster processor, and premium hardware components for smoother performance and a true next-generation user experience. Whether in new facilities or existing setups, Croptimiz-r MAX connects to all current Mooij Agro components and integrates seamlessly into any storage setup.

Saving energy with demand-driven system control

Unlike systems that rely on static settings, Croptimiz-r MAX continuously evaluates what’s needed. Heating, cooling, and ventilation only run when required, reducing energy consumption and increasing equipment life. Especially in energy-intensive regions, this leads to measurable cost savings while maintaining high crop quality.

Smart guidance with EVA virtual assistant

To make advanced control accessible to all users, the system includes EVA (Easy Virtual Assistant). EVA offers step-by-step configuration help, monitors storage performance in real time, and provides alerts with practical improvement suggestions. This ensures stable climate control, even in complex or changing conditions, without the need for constant manual oversight.

Easy setup with support from Mooij Agro’s experts

Croptimiz-r MAX is fully compatible with all existing Mooij Agro storage components, making it easy to integrate into both new and upgraded systems. As with all Mooij Agro solutions, customers benefit from comprehensive support throughout the entire process. From system setup and installation to training and ongoing service, Mooij Agro’s specialists support every step to ensure a smooth and reliable implementation. This hands-on guidance helps customers maximize system performance and safeguard their storage investment, season after season.
