Title: Presentation of the new EPM 23RPT03 project "Metrology for standardised moisture/water content measurement in plant-origin bulk materials in support of International and European food safety and trade - GrainMet"

Abstract: The EPM Project 23RPT03 GrainMet, aims to develop new measurement technologies, SI traceability paths and certifed reference materials (CRMs) for plant origin bulk materials, and to transfer this knowledge to NMIs/DIs with emerging metrology systems. GrainMet intends to build capacity, infrastructure and engage with stakeholders in a coordinated fashion to deliver services at local level based on a common knowledge basis. In particular, GrainMet focuses on the development of a method for the water content determination in plant-origin bulk materials, based on volumetric Karl Fisher titration, which has the potential to become a primary method. A CRM for the water content consisting of grain or a derivative thereof, will be developed. Good practice guides,
live and e-trainings will be produced and made available for the project stakeholders (e.g. Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine, Austria) to enhance their capabilities and to promote their participation in international trade.
