Bourgault Industries at St. Brieux has been developing new equipment to meet farmers needs.

Marketing Specialist Rob Fagnou says two new products are in the works.

He says many farmers are looking at increasing their productivity by using larger equipment.

"They are looking at ways to be able to get more acres done with less stops per fill, being able to cover more ground in the same amount of hours available to them. We see a trend in tank size and also drill size going larger, they are looking at ways of getting more done in the same amount of hours they've always had."

Fagnou adds Bourgault has always been focused on research an development and are always looking at designs that fit current market conditions.

"We've always been very cognoscente of the new developments that are helping farmers become more productive so we try to make sure that we have designs that are going to be relevant for the market. As conditions change and as farming trends change we make sure that we have the right equipment for them at the right time."

Fagnou expressed that Bourgault hopes to release something fresh in 2018.
