Minimizing Stubble Damage in Ag Tires- BKT Growing Together Center

BKT on Minimizing Stubble Damage in Ag Tires

In this video, BKT reviews ways to reduce or prevent stubble damage as part of its BKT Growing Together Center.

With more hybrid crops popping up and shorter stock cuts in the fields, stubble damage has become more of a concern for agricultural tires over the years. Stocks can become extremely rigid and cause damage to tires in the tread and sidewall areas when driving over them.

In this video, BKT’s Christopher Durbin reviews ways to reduce or prevent stubble damage, such as cutting stocks higher at harvest, from the BKT Growing Together Center. This video is sponsored by BKT.
