# Big Flotation Tires Help at Harvest
In years like this, marked with unpredictable and unfavorable weather, making sure you’re in control of the factors you *can* manage is critical. With much of the heartland battling weather that just refuses to cooperate, being too wet for planting or too dry after planting, many farmers have been forced to replant (with some even having to replant a second time)—highlighting the importance of making sure your operation is running as smoothly as possible to help salvage the season.

# Our Flotation Tires in the Nation's First National Park
Last winter, we featured[a story](http://atablogs.atgtire.com/alliance-tire-is-making-tracks-in-yellowstone) about [The Buffalo Bus Touring Company](http://www.visitmt.com/listings/general/sightseeing-tour/buffalo-bus-touring-company.html) of West Yellowstone, Montana, putting our flotation tires to the test on their winter tours of the United States’ first national park. Since that time, the tour company has come under new ownership, and we are excited to hear that the new operator had great things to say about how our tires were working for him.

One of the hardest decisions facing today’s farmers is deciding when to do what is right for the farm of today, and when to do what is right for the farm of the future. With a wet fall this year, many farmers have had to make hard decisions about getting into the fields and harvesting this year’s crop, while taking into consideration the impact bringing their machines into wet fields will have on next season's harvest.
