Agricultural Tractor (Novice)

A common sight, the Agricultural Tractor is a multi-purpose machine and an ideal solution for a variety of different projects and purposes, including:

  • moving heavy materials

  • landscaping

  • road clearing

  • towing fuel and water bowsers

  • dampening down dust

  • land clearing

  • heavy brush mowing

Farming typically springs to mind when we consider the agricultural tractor, but it serves so many different industries and very much so in the construction sector, where transporting earth and materials over challenging terrain is all part of the job.
