Disability or Health Condition: Back and neck pain, spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, and other health conditions affecting one's ability to climb or access large grain storage units

Description/Purpose: A Grain Bin Level Indicator allows a farmer to view grain levels while remaining on the ground.

These indicators use the pressure of the grain pushing against the flap on the interior wall, which changes the exterior wall device to a distinct color to clearly show the level inside the bin. Multiple indicators can provide better indication of the grain levels.
