The green tractor giant – John Deere reported earnings and revenue higher than expected. Deere reported record third-quarter results, a 26 per cent rise in North and South American sales. The company attributes its success on the strength of the farm sector.

"Deere's success is a reflection of considerable strength in the farm sector, especially in North and South America," said Deere's CEO Samuel R. Allen.

Company shares gained more than 2 per cent in early hours trading on Wednesday, shortly after the announcement. Income rose 26.4 per cent to $996.5-million, or $2.56 a share, which is up from the same quarter last year - $788.0-million, or $1.98 a share.

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.
