New Upgrades Improve Unloading Visibility and Overall Grain Cart Handling

Brent has made big updates to its V-Series grain carts. 

Farms.com recently met with Andy Unverferth, director of marketing at Unverferth Manufacturing, who introduced the new updates. 

He explained that a well-known feature of the V-Series is its excellent visibility, making unloading much easier and more accurate. 

The V-Series comes with a standard four-way downspout, allowing operators to top off trucks without having to shift or reposition the grain cart frequently, saving time during busy harvest seasons. 

New features now available include a rear access door, standard on models V1100,  1300, and V1500. 

This door makes it easier for farmers to access the inside of the hopper for cleaning between varieties or for maintenance work. 

Another improvement is the optional scoreboard scale display. A cutout on the side of the hopper allows for the easy mounting of the scoreboard, helping combine operators monitor the weight on the grain cart. 

The Brent V-Series also introduces a new metallic black paint option. 

This high-quality baked-on paint includes metallic elements, making the carts shine impressively under the right lighting conditions. 

These updates are designed to improve the overall user experience, enhance unloading efficiency, and offer a more stylish, durable equipment option.

Veteran Farmers: A Legacy of Service in Rural America

Video: Veteran Farmers: A Legacy of Service in Rural America

Veterans Day is a time to honor the men and women who have selflessly protected our freedoms and values. And for some, the transition from military service to civilian life brings them back to the farm.

At Farm Bureau, we believe it’s important to not only celebrate veterans but also those who continue to make a difference in agriculture and their community. We've partnered with Farm Credit to establish the Veteran Farmer Award of Excellence to shine a light on those who have continued to go above and beyond to serve their communities.

This year, we recognize retired Colonel Joe Ricker as the inaugural Veteran Farmer Award of Excellence winner. Joe served over 30 years in the Army before retiring from the Pentagon and completing tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Since leaving the Army, his commitment to excellence in farming and enriching the lives of veterans has blossomed in a myriad of ways in both his local community of Wilkinson, Indiana, and across the country. Joe grows apples and raises bees on his farm in Indiana. Joe founded “Veterans IN Farming,” an organization, now with more than 1,100 members, dedicated to providing veterans in Indiana with the tools and training to succeed in agriculture.

The American Farm Bureau Federation is an independent, non-governmental, voluntary organization, comprised of and directed by farm and ranch families who engage in all types of food, fuel and fiber production.
