Wet Conditions Continue to Impact Crops

In its Weekly Crop Report, Manitoba Agriculture, Food, and Rural Development (MAFRD) says crops in province are advancing quickly.
 
Over the weekend, many areas saw thunderstorms with heavy rainfall, strong winds, and hail.
 
Assessments of crop damage are on-going.
 
The wet conditions continue to impact crops as symptoms of excess moisture stress, including yellowing and slowed crop development are evident in areas of Manitoba receiving higher amounts of rainfall.
 
Herbicide applications continue and fungicide applications are also on-going, largely in winter wheat and spring wheat crops for management of leaf diseases and fusarium head blight.
 
Producers were able to continue with first cut haying operations, although precipitation and high humidity impacted progress.

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.
