Full Kubota Agricultural Line-up at the Cereals Event

Kubota Tractor and Groundcare has announced that it will be showcasing a full line-up from its range of agricultural equipment at the Lincolnshire-based Cereals Event this year.

The world-leading manufacturer will be exhibiting no less than 11 different agricultural machines on its stand, including the M series tractors and the RTV900 all terrain utility vehicle.

The highlight of the exhibition will be Kubota's flagship M130X tractor, which was unveiled last year. The 130hp model is the largest in Kubota’s range and has been designed to offer a real alternative to both 'expensive' and 'economy' tractors. It features a four-cylinder engine, electronic fuelling and engine governing as well as Intelli-Shift 16 Speed transmission with eight-speed powershift and auto field/road modes. This can be enhanced with the new LA2253 loader, which has a lifting capacity of 2.1 tons to a maximum height of 4.1m.

This will be complemented by five models from the M40 series, which spans 63 to 95hp and includes the M8540 narrow, which has been specifically designed for use on fruit farms and vineyards.

Moving into the mid-range and compact tractor market, Kubota will be exhibiting L5740 and L4100, which are both part of the GL40 Series and the STV32 compact tractor. Each machine offers real power and performance for its size, ensuring maximum versatility, productivity and efficiency.

All of these tractors can be fitted with a variety of Kubota-matched attachments and large implements to allow them to handle a diverse range of tasks from ploughing, harrowing and spraying to trailer and front-loader work. And because they are manufactured by Kubota, users are guaranteed optimum performance from their tractor.

Completing Kubota’s agricultural line up is the RTV900 all terrain utility vehicle, a rugged, all-purpose machine, which can operate both off and on-road, carry significant loads and passengers, as well as powering implements. There are five models available which feature a unique transmission system, advanced automotive type suspension, power steering and 22hp engine. And thanks to its high levels of ground clearance, this four-wheel drive vehicle is comfortable across even the most difficult terrain.

"Our stand at the Cereals event will feature 11 different machines specifically aimed at the agricultural sector," explained David Blackwood, Kubota’s Sales and Marketing Manager. "So I would encourage anyone looking for a reliable, hardworking and powerful machine at an affordable price to come along and speak to our staff about what equipment is right for their needs."
