# **Telehandlers: Winter Workhorses **

Skid steers, wheel loaders, and industrial tractors were not designed for snow removal, yet these machines are all commonly employed by snow removal services.

# Galaxy Expands Its Range of Garden pro Tires

# **Upgrading Farm Tires for Improved Soil Health **

It’s no secret that fields with healthy, uncompacted soil are more productive. It’s also apparent that wheel traffic is the major cause of soil compaction in most fields. According to a recent paper—“[Projections of yield losses and economic costs following deep wheel‐traffic compaction during the 2019 harvest](https://acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ael2.20013)”—authored by educators from the Minnesota and North Dakota extension services, deep-soil compaction (below the depth of normal tillage) can cut corn and soybean yields by an average of 21% for the following two harvests.

# **The Pros and Cons of the Different Types of Telehandler Tires **

Telehandler owners/operators ask a lot of their tires—they need to transmit a machine’s power, provide stability when moving a load at height, operate in a variety of terrains, and stand up to regular use. Consequently, equipping a telehandler with the right tire will have an enormous effect on its performance, improving everything from productivity and safety to profit. But what type of telehandler tire to choose?
