Mooij Agro B.V.

Company Description

Mooij Agro is a Dutch company specialising in potato storage automation, climate management, and ventilation solutions. The firm provides comprehensive storage solutions for potato producers, processors, and professional storage operators, as well as other agricultural commodities. Its systems are intended for bulk, box, and bag storage and are utilised to regulate the conditions required to maintain crop quality during the storage season.

Mooij Agro's potato storage system integrates ventilation, climate control, sensors, storage computers, and monitoring tools. The system provides operators with constant visibility of what is occurring within the store, including temperature, humidity, and other climatic factors. Settings and equipment may then be modified as conditions change, allowing operators manage the crop from drying to curing.

The company's ventilation and climate systems are used for seed potatoes, table potatoes and potatoes intended for processing. Depending on the storage building and storage method, Mooij Agro can provide floor and duct ventilation, pressure ventilation, aspiration ventilation and other air-distribution solutions. Heating, mechanical cooling, humidification and dehumidification can also be incorporated where required. By controlling airflow, temperature and humidity more precisely, these systems help create stable storage conditions and reduce risks such as excessive moisture loss, condensation and deterioration in product quality.

They take care of the entire process. Their team has all expertise in-house, from R& D and engineering to production and assembly. This means they can quickly adapt to new requirements, changing regulations, and specific on-site situations. Together with a strong international dealer network, the company provide local support and service wherever you are. This way, you always get the most out of your storage season.

Mooij Agro was established in the Netherlands in 1981 and has dedicated over forty years to advancing control and automation technology for the storage of crops. In 2001, Hotraco purchased Mooij Agro and broadened its operations into automation for crop storage. Mooij Agro then further expanded its global presence in storing potatoes, onions, and other crops via a network of dealers and installers. In January 2019, the company acquired the operations of AgroVent, allowing Mooij Agro to maintain service and support for the existing AgroVent equipment and setups.

In 2024, Munters aquired Hotraco. In May 2026, Munters introduced Speria as the commercial brand for its FoodTech sector, uniting technologies, software, and services for the worldwide food supply chain. Speria brings together technologies, software, and services provided in the FoodTech business area. Backed by over 150 years 
of collective expertise, Speria turns mission-critical data into operational intelligence for the global food supply chain. Speria’s strength lies in the synergy of how its solutions work together. By integrating supply chain optimization software with the farm controllers, sensors and gateways that drive your daily operations, Speria bridges the gap between actionable insight to impact. Built by industry experts who understand your reality it delivers operational intelligence solution that enables end-to-end predictability and scalable productivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Mooij Agro differentiate its automation systems from generic climate control solutions in agricultural storage?

Mooij Agro differentiates itself through crop-specific intelligence, especially tailored for potato physiology rather than generic HVAC-style control. Its systems integrate storage biology with automation logic, allowing dynamic adjustments based on respiration rates, dormancy stages and storage objectives (seed vs processing), rather than relying on static environmental thresholds.

How scalable are Mooij Agro’s solutions across diverse geographies with varying climatic conditions?

Their modular systems are inherently scalable, but true effectiveness depends on local calibration. Storage challenges differ significantly between humid tropical climates (like India) and temperate regions (like Europe), so system adaptability, sensor calibration and localized control strategies become critical for consistent performance.

How does Mooij Agro align with the increasing demand for sustainable and low-carbon agricultural practices?

By focusing on energy-efficient storage and reduced post-harvest losses, Mooij Agro contributes directly to sustainability goals. However, the broader impact depends on whether their systems integrate renewable energy compatibility or carbon tracking features in future developments.

What role does Mooij Agro play within the broader ecosystem of the Hotraco Group?

As part of Hotraco Group, Mooij Agro benefits from shared expertise in automation and control systems, allowing cross-industry innovation. This relationship strengthens its technological backbone and enables integration with other agricultural automation solutions, potentially expanding beyond storage into full supply chain control.
