BKT has launched Agrimax Procrop, a specialist tyre designed for row crops.
The company claims the narrow-profile tyre offers increased stability and can be run at lower pressure to protect the soil without damaging nearby plants. At the same time, the tire provides good traction on several different terrains along with the ability to limit soil compaction, which is essential for high yields.
The open shoulder design has been specifically engineered for optimised field performance and excellent road travel, providing improved traction on various surfaces, in addition to facilitating self-cleaning by significantly reducing dirt and debris on road surfaces.
“With AGRIMAX PROCROP, we have invested in developing a solution that would meet the needs of modern agriculture in row crop applications that involve the use of large sprayers, making handling a fundamental requirement. Not only does this tyre stand out for its technical qualities but also for the significant economic benefits it offers, says BKT R&D director Mr. Dilip Vaidya.
