Row Spacing and Ag Tires

Ask any long-time farmer what the secret to running a successful operation is and you’re sure to get a multitude of answers—but the underlying theme you’ll discover is the maximization of resources. For today’s farm to flourish, it's vital that they make the most of all of their assets, from dollars and manpower to the soil beneath the sun. One way farmers are increasing efficiency is with narrow row spacing, which allows them to intensify management of two limited resources: the land and the sun. And to keep up with changing practices like narrower row spacing, new innovative tires are being developed to help farmers reduce the impact of their machinery on the land while keeping their farms sustainable.

A Tough Tire for Tough Jobs

Perhaps no group faces a more challenging collection of problems than our forestry tire customers. If dilemmas such as a lack of labor, fluctuating markets and erratic weather weren’t enough, today’s loggers need to move huge, high-horsepower machinery into often-remote and difficult-to-access parts of the forest—and then they have to remove huge, heavy timber from the forest. To address these issues, we've created the Primex LogStomper Extreme.

Farm Tires for Spring Conditions 

With spring rapidly approaching, farmers across the United States are gearing up and preparing to re-enter their fields. Depending on the location and what type of crops the farm is growing, the equipment used and needs of the crops vary. However, the challenges presented during the spring remain the same throughout much of the U.S., as spring brings wet fields and inconsistent weather—which means that farmers need to be mindful of the load and traction of their machines, avoid soil compaction, and be able to move quickly and cover lots of acres during windows of good weather. Below is a look what will be happening on farms across the U.S. this spring and how our farm tires can help overcome the challenges presented by the season.

Radial vs. Bias Farm Tires

 

Agricultural tires continue to evolve to meet the needs of today’s farmers, but whether to choose a bias or radial tire remains a nagging question. So how do you make the decision of whether or not to save a few extra dollars by staying on older-fashioned bias tires, and when are the features and benefits offered by radials worth the investment? Read on for some facts that may help you feel better about your decision.
