Tractor market first half of 2025: positive trend returns
After several negative quarters, the market appears to be starting to grow again. Only slightly, compared to a six-month period that had gone terribly, but as the well-known saying goes: “A little is better than nothing.” Furio Oldani After a boom in registrations in 2021, with approximately 24,360 units, the tractor market has consistently seen declines, falling to approximately 20,160 registrations in 2022, approximately 17,600 in 2023, and approximately 15,380 last year. 2025 also began negatively, with a decline of more than six and a half percentage points at the…
Read MoreHonest or Forgotten?
Italy is burdened by the 17 percent of workers who declare incomes of €35,000 gross per year or more.

This is a necessary…
Read MoreThe first vintage Lamborghini tracked tractors yellow-gold
The first vintage Lamborghini tracked tractors produced by Lamborghini, built between 1955 and 1961, had the unique feature of being available both in the classic grey/red two-tone color scheme and in an attractive “gold-yellow” livery Massimo Misley Excluding the carioche, the first tractor built by Lamborghini was the “L 33” model, produced in 1951. The history of the company founded by Ferruccio Lamborghini is therefore relatively recent, especially when compared to Fiat (which began in 1918), Landini (1928), and Same (shortly after). Nevertheless, in the collective imagination, Lamborghini tractors have…

The system of subsidized insurance policies dedicated to the agricultural sector will slow down in 2024 The system of subsidized insurance policies for the agricultural sector is slowing down.

Read MoreSquare balers Sb 1290 iD by Kuhn: unique and exclusive
Kuhn’s “SB 1290 iD” square balers are the only machines of their kind featuring the “TwinPact” system—a dual-piston compression mechanism that super-compacts the crop—and offering the option to add a pre-chopper for fine straw shredding In fields with vast cereal crops, once the combines finish their work, a valuable byproduct remains: straw. Given the current low prices of both soft and durum wheat—lower than in recent seasons—the additional income from straw becomes particularly significant. However, as with any agricultural operation, the collection must be managed with efficiency and productivity in…
Read MoreKubota M5002 Narrow series: The good turning point
Versatile and easy to handle, the specialized Kubota M5002 Narrow series aims to ensure faster production cycles In recent years, specialized agriculture has been one of the few segments of the Italian primary sector experiencing constant growth.

This translates into unstable product prices, especially for fruit, and a constant imbalance between production costs and company profitability. To protect the latter, viticultural and fruit-growing companies have increasingly…
