Broadacre farming is a labour-intensive endeavour, and farmers know that success hinges on using products that are up to the challenge. Whether it's storing rainwater, liquid fertiliser, or transporting diesel, farmers need reliable products that support them and ensure optimal results throughout the year.
Avoiding Liquid Leakage with State-of-the-art Design
In the world of stock and crop farming, water is a precious resource, and Leon Sharman, a dedicated farmer from Cadoux, Western Australia, knows the importance of safeguarding it. Managing 25,000 acres of farmland with 18,000 acres of crops and 6,000 sheep, Leon relies on Coerco's dependable storage solutions to keep his operations running smoothly.
"On-site, we have four Flexi-N 50,000-litre tanks and one 50,000-litre water storage tank that we use for chemical fill-ups. With the price of liquid Flexi-N, you wouldn't trust it with anything less," Leon explains.
Water has become increasingly valuable, especially stock water, and Leon emphasises the importance of reliable tanks. "You know, we don't want our tanks leaking when we're not around during summer, especially when it's important for stock. So yeah, it's quite important to use the right product," he shares.
Coerco’s poly water tanks are designed with precision to prevent leaks. Their seamless construction and watertight design ensure reliability. Built to withstand harsh conditions, these tanks are durable, impact-resistant, and UV stabilised, making them an ideal choice for storing liquid fertiliser or rainwater.
Transporting Diesel, the Easy Way
The process of transporting diesel is something that farmers understand needs to be done with the utmost efficiency and undertaken with reliable products.
To further increase the efficiency of his equipment, Leon invested in Coerco’s 3,000-litre diesel transport tank. The tank features a skid design, making it easy to load and unload from his trailer and allowing him to use the trailer for other purposes when demand for filling vehicles is lower. Its baffle design ensures vehicle stability, while its heavy-duty construction and full UV stabilisation make it capable of withstanding the wear and tear of constant outdoor activity. Additionally, the tank’s sight tube simplifies monitoring its contents.
"Just an easy product to use. It’s cheaper than steel. It makes life a lot easier filling up machinery,” Leon says of the diesel transport tank.
Coerco understands that trust is of utmost importance to hardworking farmers like Leon. "I chose them because I built up a relationship with them,” says Leon. “They’re local boys, and with just a quick phone call, they’ve always delivered high-quality products suited to our needs.”
With Coerco, Leon has found reliable solutions and a trusted partner who understands the challenges of modern farming.
