Kubota Tractors Will Get The Job Done

By Shane Wilkes

Kubota was established in Japan in 1890. We have become an global leader in our field. We have a focus to contribute to society. We do this by offering environmentally safe equipment designed to improve the quality of life.

Although we first established our roots in Japan we have grown significantly through the years. Kubota is proud that our corporation now has subsidiaries and/or affiliates who manufacture and/or market Kubota products in more than 130 countries. Just think about the popularity of the Kubota bx24 tractor. Our company now has roots all over the world. We are in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom just to name a few.

In 1992, in recognizing Kubota's on-going efforts to help protect the environment, we were honored with the 'Sankel Newspaper Award.' We received this honor as well as the 'Deming Award, ' which was given to us as a result of our excellence in manufacturing. To make it even more rewarding for us we received this as the first award of manufacturing excellence in Japan.

Born with the roots on the Japanese farm, the Kubota tractors are traditionally smaller than tractors Americans are accustomed to seeing and using. There is a need for high performance and easy and powerful maneuverability and, despite its more compact construction, the Kubota tractor ranks up at the top to meet these needs. The Kubota b26 show this off well.

The United States was first introduced to our tractor in 1969. The introductory model was the Kubota 21. We were delighted when it became a huge, overnight success. Due to this success, the Kubota Tractor Corporation was created in 1972. Two years later Kubota introduced the first 12 horsepower tractor with four-wheel drive. This was a huge accomplishment for Kubota tractors because the four-wheel drive tractor was common amongst the larger American tractors. However, it had not been heard of in the compact sector. This was a great success for Kubota. It became a benchmark for the industry. It became a dream come true for our company.



Kubota is proud of the achievements and accomplishments during the past quarter century as well. Kubota has continued with its expansion of our product line. We now offer four types of tractors ' the BX, B, L, and M series. Many owner liked the Kubota b6100 tractor model. Kubota tractors has also been successful with the introduction of compact construction equipment as well as turf, lawn and garden equipment.

These products were followed by the introduction, by Kubota, of pumps and generators. The Performance-Matched products followed. Marketing and distribution of tractors with 40 horsepower, or less, has helped Kubota to become the leader in their field. There are now 80 tractor styles offered by Kubota.

With a small beginning in Japan, more than a hundred years ago, Kubota has grown and become a world leader in the sales of tractors and other equipment. To date the 130 plants are found all over the world. They presently lead their field; they plan to continue in that position. - 30215
