Abstract

A material handling system (10) for storage, recording and display of information required to aid in the filling, mixing, loading, and recording of complex mixtures of materials such as fertilizer; wherein a computer (12), a key board (20), and a load cell (28) provide input to a central unit (16) which processes the inputs and activates a board (18) which displays information required to sequentially load several ingredients into a hopper (24) to form mixture batches which are sequentially transported by a conveyor (30) to a mixer (32) and then by a loading tube (34) to a hauling vehicle (36).
