<p num="1"><br/><br/><br/>The grain and fertiliser conveyor (10) of the present invention transports <br/>particulate material quickly and efficiently whilst minimising damage to the <br/>material (75) being transported. The conveyor includes an elongated housing <br/>(14) which houses a conveyor belt (16) adapted to receive material through a <br/>catchment hopper at a lower end of the housing and transport the material to <br/>the upper end of the housing for discharge therefrom. The conveyor belt (16) <br/>is both cleated (66) and bordered (68, 70) which allows for larger volumes of <br/>material to be conveyed without contacting the side walls of the housing (14) <br/>and hence minimising damage to the material. Further, the conveyor (10) <br/>includes a non-complex mechanism for tensioning and de-tensioning the belt <br/>(16). It is envisaged that the conveyor (10) of the present invention may <br/>supersede many conveyors and augers which are used today in the agricultural <br/>industry<br/>
