How your agricultural tyre footprint can help you detect a problem

Slippage, compaction or the formation of ruts are often the result of a bad choice of agricultural tyre or the wrong adjustment of the tyres which is not always easy to detect. A close look at your tractor tyre footprint can help you to easily diagnose the use of unsuitable equipment, badly adjusted settings or excessive wear.

Fuel savings of 10% to 20% with good tractor tyres

 Fuel represents an important line in a farm budget (whatever the type of farm). It effectively represents 30% of the global energy consumption in agriculture. To improve your economic performance, it is therefore vital to exercise tight control over fuel costs. For this, several equipment related aspects can be optimised, in particular in relation to your agricultural tyres. 

How best to use your tractor tyres: wide or dual tyres

Several different tyres may suit the tractor for soil preparation work. Wide tyres or dual tyres: which equipment offers the best efficiency?

There are several advantages to using dual tyres on a tractor. Firstly, it reduces pressure to the ground. As the weight of the tractor is spread over two tyres instead of one, the pressure to the ground is effectively reduced.
