MASC Expects Lower Claims This Year

Farmers have until November 30th to fill out their Harvested Production Reports for annual crops.
 
David Koroscil is Manager of Claims Services with Manitoba Agricultural Services Corporation (MASC).
 
"Early indications are it was a pretty good year overall," he said. "I won't say bumper crop by any means, but well above coverage for most producers. It looks like our claim load will be less than it has been in the last three or four years. Still some issues though. Canola, soybeans seeing some pockets where the yields were reduced and again I think it just related to whether or not those specific areas missed out on some timely rains at key points in the growing season."
 
Koroscil notes hail claims were also down this year.

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.
