New app to combat soil compaction

 

Farmers know that maintaining a low tyre inflation pressure is essential to minimize soil compaction. However, since the recommended pressure varies depending on the tyre size, tractor speed and payload, it is not always easy to keep track of the correct information. That is why Bridgestone, the world’s largest tyre and rubber manufacturer, has developed a user-friendly smartphone app which tells farmers in an instant how low their tyre pressure could be under the specific conditions. As such, the app goes a long way towards helping farmers protect their soil, and boost the performance, productivity and life of their VT-TRACTOR tyres.
