Case IH Farmall tractors make a comeback in Australia

Agricultural giant Case IH has announced the return of its Farmall range of compact tractors into the Australian market this year with the launch of the range’s B and JX series in March 2013.

According to a report by the Weekly Times, the Farmall
range had been introduced in the country several times (when it
came out in the 1920s and re-launched briefly five years ago) but
had since been discontinued until now.

This time around, the new tractors will feature increased engine
capacity, ranging from 23-110 horsepower.

Case IH
Tractors Product Manager John Dreves says the Farmall is the ideal
small tractor suited to small to mid-sized farming operations.

“The Farmall name is a customer favourite, well-known around the
world for its versatility and performance,” he says.

“We’ve evolved the Farmall over the years to meet the varying
needs of Australian producers and in 2013 we’re excited to
introduce our new range offering increased engine capacity across
many operating environments.”

The Farmall B series tractors will replace the Maxxfarm range of
compact tractors and will include six models in the line-up- The
20B, 25B, 35B, 40B, 50B and 60B.

The series features three or four cylinder, fuel efficient
engines and mechanical self-levelling loaders. They can also be
fitted with a wide range of attachments for a variety of uses.

“The Farmall B moves effortlessly between operating sprayers and
high powered tillers in horticulture operations, manoeuvring in
orchards and plantations and handling a wide range of small farm
tasks,” Dreves says.

Also being launched this year is the Farmall JX series which is
the higher powered range of the Farmall line-up, featuring seven
models – The 70JX, 75JX, 80JX, 90JX 100JX and 110JX.

“The Farmall JX is the perfect combination of economy and
productivity delivering a reliable and effective performance across
a variety of tasks,” Dreves says.

“The hydraulic power shuttle, standard on the top four models,
is perfect for loader work in livestock applications, offering
smooth direction changes and increased productivity.”

He adds the new tractors have been designed with versatility in
mind.

“We understand that on any given day, producers are performing a
variety of tasks and must be able to turn their hand to any
situation – now we offer a range of tractors that do the same,” he
says.

“We’re excited to see the Farmall back on Australian soil so
talk to your local
Case IH dealer
about our new range of Farmall B and JX
tractors.”
