Did you know that you could extend the useful life of your agricultural tyres considerably simply by following the indications which are inscribed on your tyres, such as the load and speed index? You can also make your tyres last longer by maintaining them properly and by managing their storage better when they are not being used.

The simplest solution is to get a better understanding of the...

Soil preservation has become a major challenge as far as ensuring farm continuity and profitability is concerned. Every farmer knows the extent to which soil fertility has a direct impact on yields, by facilitating root development and allowing a better absorption of water, fertiliser and essential nutrients. Yet with each pass of the tractor, compaction threatens the natural soil porosity, thus...

Did you know that that most incidents involving harvesting tyres occur at the very beginning of the season and that the issues arising are generally the consequences of a problem encountered during the previous season? A minor impact to the sidewall, improper storage during the winter, driving with an excess load during the preceding harvest often lead to weak points which could result in the...

When you decide to change tyre size, it’s to obtain more longitudinal traction, less compaction and therefore better care for your soil. If you make the decision to increase tyre size, it’s to improve the performance of your tractor, but be careful in terms of the mechanical performance of agricultural tyres… Behind this little known notion lies the question of lead, which is an essential aspect...

Unlike a car, a tractor is a multi-purpose vehicle which can carry or pull much more than its own weight, over all types of terrain. These demands are managed by your tyres and the disparity between these demands is the reason why it is important to always have the right pressure settings, to make your equipment last over time. Carrying out pressure adjustments may seem insignificant, but for...

Why is the choice of tyre size so vital? The contact patch between the tyres of a tractor and the ground may not seem significant, but this is where the key to vehicle performance lies. Whether for the transmission of engine power, ensuring good traction or protecting your soil, the choice of tyre has an influence on your productivity, your yield and, at the end of the day, on your...

In wet conditions, work in the fields can easily become problematic when you don’t have the self-cleaning capacity of your tractor tyres or implements under tight control. Slip effectively always begins with too much earth accumulating between the tyre lugs without you really knowing why. Yet when you start to slip, working gets complicated, the tyres seal over the soil, there is loss of...

When it comes to choosing new tyres, your decision can have a direct impact on productivity and farm yields. How can you be sure of choosing the right agricultural tyre from among an offering that is always so diversified? The answer often lies in the experience of those who use them. There is no better proof of quality than a user testimonial. Technical data sheets and manufacturer promises are...

Agricultural tyres, while often neglected, are a key part of your business equipment. Whether for working in the fields, transport by road or manoeuvres in the farm courtyard, their role is decisive in ensuring the smooth running of your operations. A puncture while working or a breakdown can rapidly transform your day into a nightmare: immobilisation of the tractor, loss of time and money or...
