In the field of agricultural mechanization, continuously variable gearboxes represent the mechatronic point of reference as regards power transmission. Their simplicity and immediacy of use, combined with mechanical performances increasingly similar to those offered by traditional powershift gearboxes, have made them a priority choice also by those operators who mainly use their tractors in heavy field activities and therefore until yesterday they tended to favor powershift transmissions. This is mainly due to a design approach based on an epicyclic system that progressively and continuously redistributes the driving torque supplied by…

Continental “Mpt” series tires

31 July 202431 July 2024 Redazione

The technological advancement of self-propelled agricultural machinery has allowed some of these vehicles to find use outside their traditional sectors, opening up new possibilities for their utilization. Road maintenance in summer and winter has long been carried out using tractors, but it is not uncommon to see these same machines also engaged in beach cleaning, riverbank excavation, or transport within construction sites, especially those organized for large-scale projects. In such contexts, the tractor is often highlighted as a self-propelled energy generator. This characteristic can be optimized in terms of performance,…

Biodynamic agriculture turns one hundred (with plummeting production)

30 July 202431 July 2024 Redazione

Donatello Sandroni On May 19, 2024, Corriere della Sera published an article titled “Biodynamic Agriculture, Animals as Allies of Farmers. An Alliance that Delivers Results and Respects the Environment.” The piece was essentially an interview with Carlo Triarico, President of the Italian Association for Biodynamic Agriculture. To be clear, Triarico is the president of an agriculture based on the unproven fantasies of Rudolf Steiner, a bizarre Austrian thinker and esotericist who died exactly a century ago.

Trelleborg’s specialized range in three families

29 July 202429 July 2024 Redazione

From an economic perspective, specialized agriculture represents one of the most rewarding sectors when focused on high-quality production. This quality is achieved through a constant effort to promote the vegetative growth of various products, which originates from protecting the soil and respecting its characteristics. In this context, the choice of tires for machines and equipment, which directly interact with the ground by transmitting traction and pressure to it, is crucial. If traction is not well managed by the tire treads, it can lead to unwanted soil damage, especially at the…
