AGCO Agriculture Foundation Donates $50,000 to Georgia Hurricane Relief Fund Initiative

The Georgia Department of Agriculture and leading agricultural organizations have recently banded together to build a relief fund for Georgia farmers impacted by the storm. Today, AGCO announced that its Agriculture Foundation (the "Foundation") has donated $50,000 to the Georgia Foundation for Agriculture to support that initiative, the Weathered But Strong: Hurricane Relief Fund. The relief fund initiative is led by over 40 of Georgia's top agricultural organizations, including the Georgia Agribusiness Council and the Georgia Department of Agriculture, and is dedicated to helping farmers recover from the severe damage caused by Hurricane Helene.

The Hurricane Relief Fund for Georgia farmers aims to raise $1 million to provide immediate support to farmers, with 100% of donations going directly to those in need. The fund offers resources to help farmers recover and continue their vital work.

For its part, AGCO’s Agriculture Foundation is a private foundation with the vision to prevent and relieve hunger through sustainable agricultural development, according to the statement released Nov. 4 by AGCO.

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.
