Tracked Snow Groomer Shines On Farm Fields
 ✖  |
Track, Inc., Bloomington, Minn., is North America’s largest dealer of tracked snow grooming vehicles used by snowmobile trail grooming associations. The company recently began offering a new agricultural tracked vehicle that can be fitted with sprayers or fertilizer applicators made by DK Machine.
The Model 1600 Ag Tucker Terra is a tracked machine made by Tucker Snowcat Co. based in Medford, Ore. It rides on 4 steerable tracks and uses many of the same components the company uses in their Tucker Terra snow grooming equipment. It comes with a 3-ton capacity granular fertilizer tank and spinner spreaders. A 500-gal. spray tank with spray booms up to 90 ft. long is also available.
“The Tucker Terra has a very light footprint and really shines in soft ground conditions,” says Rick Keith, Track, Inc. “It was introduced to the West Coast last year and has been widely used in the grass and sod farming industry.
“The tracks measure 26 in. wide and exert only 1 1/2 lbs. per sq. in., which results in less compaction than you typically get with tracked farm tractors. The machine itself weighs only about 12,000 lbs.”
The 1600 Ag Trucker Terra is available with rubber, steel, or rubber-coated Grouser tracks. It sells for about $250,000.
