By , Farms.com

 Federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz released a statement on Friday, extending his sincere condolences of the passing of former Minister of Agriculture John Wise.

Wise will be remembered for the many contributions that he has made to Canadian agriculture. He was instrumental in developing some key pieces of legislation including the Canada-U.S. Trade Agreement. He also helped deliver transition assistance for grape growers, which helped led to Canada’s world-class wine industry.

He will not only be remembered for the contributions that he made to agriculture but he will also be remembered as a true gentleman. Minister Ritz has sent his thoughts and prayers to the Wise family.

Video: Demco Dual Aguer Grain Carts — Fire Safety Systems, Right or Left-Handed Unload, and More!


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.
