Farmtrac to showcase all-electric compact tractor at Great Yorkshire Show
20th June 2023
The machinery display at this year’s Great Yorkshire Show will feature Farmtac’s pioneering all-electric compact tractor, alongside other cutting-edge machines from the brand including the popular FT26 and the higher horsepower FT6050.
Known for combining tradition with innovation, the Great Yorkshire show has a well-respected place in the farming event calendar and is set to take place in Harrogate on 11-14 July 2023.
Among the debutants at this year’s show will be Farmtrac, manufacturer of the industry’s first-ever electric compact tractor and other innovative, high-performance machinery in the 22-113hp range.
Visitors will find the all-electric FT25G displayed on distributor Reesink Agriculture’s stand. The tractor features an eco-friendly lithium-ion battery and can run for up to six hours with low noise levels.
The battery can then be left to charge overnight using a domestic three-pin socket for eight hours and will still outperform a comparable 25hp diesel tractor in applications such as mowing and transporting materials.
Accompanying the machine on the stand will be the FT26, along with its hydrostatic (HST) version. Due to its light and narrow body, this model is suitable for operating in smaller, tighter areas without compromising on performance, combined with a 750kg capacity that is capable of handling field work.
From the higher end of the horsepower range, the FT6050 will also be on display. Renowned for its fuel efficiency and durability, the machine’s 47hp three-cylinder Stage V diesel engine is designed to meet EU emission standards, ensuring clean emissions while delivering good levels of fuel economy and plenty of power.
Meanwhile, the heavy-duty rear three-point linkage with 1500kg lift capacity features Cat1 and Cat2 ball ends to accommodate a host of rear-mounted attachments.
All of the above tractors are manufactured as standard with high-quality components, including transmissions designed and produced by Carraro and hydraulic systems from MITA, to deliver solid performance whether working the land, towing trailers or hauling equipment.
Steven Haynes, tractor sales manager at Reesink Agriculture, commented: “The reason why we have a comprehensive show calendar is because Farmtrac is a relatively new player to the UK tractor landscape, and they really need to be seen in person and up close to appreciate the quality they bring.”
He added the tractors represent a great option for customers seeking an innovative yet practical machine that is uncompromising on efficiency, durability and longevity.
“We look forward to showing visitors at the Great Yorkshire Show the Farmtrac range and telling them about the superb warranty of up to five years and to discuss the great value, great choice options they offer for the price point.”
