Wouldn't unloading/dumping be easier of there was a drawstring or a quick-release flap on the bottom.
 
We have taken over the large canvas bags that the kids used to deliver papers with to pick corn.  Sling the strap over your shoulder,  pick  the bag full, then dump it into a wagon parked nearby.

When I was a kid, picking corn with my family, one person would drive the tractor with a wagon and rest of us would pick and throw the ears into the wagon.  We took turns driving the tractor.  The tractor went along the edge of the field, then moved over the 4 or 5 rows that had been picked and so on.  Does this make sense?
