AGI Debuts World’s First PTO-Driven Mechanical Swing Conveyor

WINNIPEG, MB, July 21, 2026 – Farmers attending Ag In Motion (AIM) this week, July 21-23, will get a first look at the world’s first PTO-driven mechanical swing conveyor as Ag Growth International Inc. (AGI) debuts the new LCX4 at booth 570. Designed to move up to 9,000 bushels per hour using a smaller yard tractor, the 2027-model conveyor introduces a new approach to high-capacity grain handling for today’s ever-changing farm operations. The launch headlines AGI’s 30th anniversary and AGI Knows Yards showcase at Western Canada’s largest outdoor farm expo. 

Founded in Saskatchewan in 1996, AGI has grown from prairie roots into a global provider of equipment and solutions that help safely move, store, condition, protect, and process grain, fertilizer, seed, feed and food ingredients for farmers, processors and industry. Today, AGI serves customers in more than 100 countries across the agriculture and food value chain.  

“Celebrating 30 years is an opportunity to reflect on how far our industry has come and, also, serves as a reminder of our responsibility to keep innovating for what is next,” said Paul Brisebois, AGI President and CEO. “The LCX4 and the other solutions we’re showcasing at AIM demonstrate our commitment to deliver safer, more efficient and higher-performing products that help customers protect the quality of commodities, improve harvest-to-bin efficiencies and meet the challenges of modern farm operations with confidence.” 

Battle-tested by farmers for more than two years, the LCX4 was engineered to address a key harvest challenge: moving higher volumes of commodities without requiring the use of a large tractor.  

AGI's PTO-driven mechanical swing eliminates the need for continuous high hydraulic flow while delivering full performance and allowing farmers to unload faster and more efficiently with a 60 hp tractor. Available in lengths from 68 to 108 feet, the swing conveyor has the reach needed for taller and expanding storage systems. 

“We’re excited to introduce this new product to farmers at AIM in the province where AGI began,” said David Postill, AGI Senior Vice President, North America. “Built in Swift Current, SK, it was designed around what farmers are asking for: more capacity, less complexity, cleaner grain handling, and reliable performance when every minute counts.” 

Based on customer feedback, the new swing conveyor was designed from the ground up with reinforced trussing, a stronger scissor frame, an improved hopper, and advanced sealing systems.  

• The larger hopper allows grain to flow smoothly with speed for faster truck unloading, while improved sealing increases throughput to contain small grains.  

• The low-profile of the steel swing hopper combines easy trailer access with strength to handle heavy loads and durability for tough conditions.  

• For those handling multiple commodities, the LCX4 includes an all-farm commodity cleanout system with a belt brush, three belt scrapers and turbo-clean wash systems to simplify changeovers and reduce downtime.  

“Whether farmers are loading bigger bins, managing multiple commodities or trying to maximize efficiency during harvest, the LCX4 is built to help them move grain faster, reduce downtime and get more done in the yard,” added Postill. 

In addition to the LCX4 debut, AGI’s will showcase its latest gas- and diesel-powered portable equipment, including the BCX4and UCX4 field loaders, the STX3 auger, as well as advances in grain and fuel storage systems, bin accessories and other yard solutions. As farmers prepare for variable harvest conditions, AGI specialists will be available to discuss practical readiness tips for storage, conditioning, aeration and drying. 

During AIM farmers, dealers and industry guests are invited to visit the AGI yard at booth 570 to see the public debut of the LCX4 long conveyor, see how AGI farm tests its products, connect with AGI experts, and celebrate 30 years of AGI’s agricultural innovation.
