Kubota for Christmas

Kubota for Christmas

Kubota For Christmas. I'm Greg Martin with Washington Ag Today.

Christmas is one week away and I know what you have been asking Santa for. Kent Brown, Senior Product Manager for Kubota has been helping farmers find the right product to put under that tree.

BROWN: The M7 tractor that we introduced last year, the M7 is our largest tractor, 130 to 170 engine horsepower. It's got a lot of diverse uses and abilities to go into different markets. With bar axels being an option or flange axel being an option, the ability to get different tread widths to get into different applications whether you want to try to get it as narrow as possible to get through some larger vineyards. You know the older vineyards with wider rows or if you want to get into the apple markets, we're probably going to be working on some specialty tire programs to try to get into the orchard markets with those tractors.

And just in case you your needs are more for things like hay.

BROWN: The loader is going to have the highest lift capacity in the market so whether you're feeding cattle or moving hay or you're just moving boxes of nuts around, you're going to be able to use that loader for many uses. We have been touting it as out entry into the row crop market but our real strong areas are going to be into the commercial beef, dairy, livestock, larger scale than what we've been in the past.

So if you'd like to see a brand spankin' new Kubota M7 under your Christmas tree this year, call your local Kubota dealer and ask. Santa just may be making the rounds this year on a Kubota tractor.

And that's Washington Ag Today. I'm Greg Martin, thanks for listening on the Ag Information Network of the West.
