Ag Industry Coalition Submitting Recommendations To CTA Review Panel

A coalition of Canadian agricultural groups has banded together to submit recommendations to the Canada Transportation Act (CTA) review.
 
This group, which represents the vast majority of shippers of bulk and processed grains and a broad cross-section of grower funded organizations, believes that the current rail system is not meeting the needs of producers and exporters.
 
One of the coalition's recommendations is to improve transparency with regards to the capacity and operation of the rail freight system by improving the CTA's access to information.
 
The coalition is also asking that a permanent advisory board composed of stakeholders representing all primary rail user groups assist in the establishment of the new monitor's operating terms of reference and to guide its activities on an on-going basis.

Demco's dual auger grain cart is designed for unloading efficiency, operator visibility, and safety in the field.

This dual-auger design features both an unload auger and a floor auger for enhanced grain cleanout and consistent flow, and the 22-inch unload auger is capable of moving up to 600 bushels per minute.

Farmers can also choose between right or left-handed unload options—right-handed unload improves visibility from the tractor cab. A new design allows both vertical and horizontal movement for precise grain placement during unloading.

Another key feature is the built-in fire safety system; a 300-gallon onboard water tank with a hose reel that provides field-ready fire suppression capability.

These dual auger grain carts are available in 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700, and 2200 bushel sizes.
