Farmers delivering to Bunge sites or selling grain to Bunge are required to register with the National Grower Register (NGR).
NGR is a single place for you to keep contact and business details up to date. These are shared with us and other registered buyers.
To update your contact details, please log in to myNGR or call NGR on 1800 556 630. NGR will automatically share your new contact details with us.
You are required to complete a delivery advice and declaration with details about your load for each delivery to a Bunge site.
You can complete a digital delivery advice through the Bunge app, or via the hard copy book available at sites.
In addition to providing delivery details, you must complete declarations regarding chemical application, season of production, and if the variety is genetically modified.
Farmers or the carrier must also to record the last commodity carried. If we identify a contaminant on the vehicle at any stage of the receival process the load will be declined and future loads may require the last three loads to be declared.
Please ensure all fields are completed prior to presenting at the classification office.

Dynamic binning has delivered around $73 million in value to farmers since it was introduced in 2018*, with the opportunity for immediate upgrades of wheat, barley and canola for loads that are just outside of receival standards.
Through dynamic binning, we’re able to provide more value to farmers while continuing to meet end use customers’ outturn requirements.
In addition to dynamic binning, we also provide a 1% tolerance for moisture above Grain Trade Australia (GTA) receival standards on all wheat and barley deliveries.

Bunge works with the grain industry, the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) and SA Police to implement measures to reduce heavy vehicle overloading and promote compliance with transport regulation, while taking into account the challenges faced by farmers and heavy vehicle operators in moving grain from farm to site.
All heavy vehicle operators should be familiar with the South Australia Farm Gate Grain Transport Mass Exemption Notice 2025 (No.1) and the Heavy Vehicle National Law.
The driver is responsible for determining the vehicle’s legal mass limit and is required to declare the this at a Bunge site via a mass limit code.
The mass limit code is linked to the legal mass of the specific vehicle configuration, including accredited vehicles. The code is recorded on the weighnote.
Declaring the wrong code on a weighnote or exceeding the vehicle’s legal gross mass limit is an offence where NHVR may impose penalties.
Together with Grain Transport Safety Network (GTSN), we publish the below truck charts and book to assist you to accurately identify the mass requirements applying to grain trucks.
Please consult these documents to ensure trucks are loaded within legal mass limits and reduce the risks associated with overloaded heavy vehicles travelling on roads.
Drivers claiming vehicle mass limits higher than the general mass are required to provide evidence of entitlement such as their accreditation number under the National Heavy Vehicle Accreditation Scheme (NHVAS) and permit number issued by the NHVR.
Failure to provide evidence of mass limit entitlement will result in the vehicle being treated as operating at the general mass limit.
Please contact the NHVR on 1300 696 487 or visit nhvr.gov.au for more information.
When a vehicle is loaded, the loader and driver have a responsibility to ensure the vehicle is not loaded in excess of its permitted mass limit.
Bunge weighs vehicles on entry and exit of its facilities. If a vehicle enters any Bunge site overloaded to any extent, the weighnote will be marked with a mass breach warning and may be reported to NHVR.
Bunge employees will advise drivers of overloaded vehicles any requirements to ensure site safety and safe management of the vehicle.
Both the loader and driver are required to demonstrate that actions have been taken to avoid overloads recurring when loading vehicles on farm.
Important information on breaches
Breaches include:
The farmer who consigned the load may receive a formal letter, phone call or email from Bunge advising of the breach, in accordance with Chain of Responsibility legislation.
The road immediately adjacent to grain receival sites may be subject to lower restrictions on vehicle mass, which is commonly referred to as the ‘last mile’.
Drivers must take into consideration maximum mass limit allowed on all roads used during their trip, including ‘last mile’ restrictions, when planning off-farm deliveries to Bunge sites. For more information, visit the NHVR route planner or RAVNet maps.
Drivers should be familiar with the South Australian Grain Carriers Code of Practice which is registered with the NHVR.
The chain of responsibility (COR) laws are set by the government to make sure everyone in the supply chain shares responsibility for ensuring breaches of the Heavy Vehicle National Law do not occur.
Heavy vehicle safety is everyone’s responsibility.
The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) reminds farmers of the important role they play in the safety of heavy vehicle drivers, whether you are using your own heavy vehicle or contracting a service.
It is important to take some time at the start of the season, or before undertaking a task, to identify and reduce the risks related to heavy vehicle transport tasks.
In particular, have a plan to:

Prior to commencing an off-farm grower delivery, the driver must consider:
The code does not provide authority for any vehicle to be loaded in excess of its statutory mass limit. Farmers, loaders and drivers all have their own obligations under transport regulation. If you are unsure of your obligations you should seek independent advice.
Anyone driving a vehicle carrying grain must ensure they are aware of and comply with all Chain of Responsibility requirements, including heavy vehicle mass management.
All vehicles transporting grain must meet cleanliness standards outlined in the prior load matrix.
Farmers using carriers remain responsible for grain quality and must ensure trucks are clean before loading. Vehicles must be fit for purpose and presented free of contaminants, including the tarpaulin.
Vehicles that do not meet hygiene requirements will not be loaded or unloaded.
The prior load matrix outlines cleaning requirements based on previous loads and applies to all vehicles transporting commodities to, from or within Bunge sites.
For farmer deliveries, it is mandatory to declare the last load carried on the delivery advice. All other movement-types require the last three loads to be declared.
Farmers should also refer to Bunge’s full road vehicle hygiene requirements.
Inner Harbour, Port Lincoln, Wallaroo, Port Giles and Thevenard are delivery points for farmers as well as export shipping terminals.
We manage deliveries to our port terminals to meet shipping requirements and maximise the efficiency of the storage and handling network, for the benefit of farmers, exporters and the industry.
Farmers can deliver direct to Wallaroo, Thevenard and Port Giles at all times in line with the segregation plan.
At times, deliveries to Inner Harbour and Port Lincoln may be restricted to farmers within the local delivery zone only. Farmers will be notified via SMS and Bunge app notification when the delivery line is open/closed for certain commodities or grades.
Sell your grain stored on farm to a buyer for delivery direct to port ahead of when they have a vessel booked to load.
Port direct allows you to maximise the value of your on-farm grain, with buyers reflecting a reduction in fees through higher pricing for your grain.
Contact your buyer for delivery options and pricing. Growers are responsible for quality management in storage and delivery to port at buyer’s call. Learn more about the port direct process.
Outside of harvest we receive all deliveries, including through port direct, under our postharvest delivery procedure. This includes contacting port to book in before delivering. Learn more about delivering to Bunge postharvest.
Our fee structure reflects the most efficient operations of the storage and handling network long term. The structure is designed to encourage growers and commercial customers to use the most efficient sites and ports.
Storage and handling service fees are paid by our commercial customers, and it is at their discretion how they reflect our cost-based charging structure in their site based pricing to grower customers.
