Weigh Cells only nothing else has worked.

We have trialled strain gauges and radar systems for a feed company the only way to monitor whats in the bin is load cells.

That's interesting. I've just started breeding (on a B&B basis) for the same someone. I was hoping that they might fit me up with some strain gauges.
From what I gathered I didn't think they were that impressed with the strain gauges.
The someone that the feed trial is for might not be who you think it is
We're currently doing a feed trial for them, no offer of any weighing systems for the bins

How long have you been doing it? I think this is 5th batch of trial, only had guages proper for the last two
