Kubota Tractor commemorated the first official retail sale in the world of a Kubota Round Baler from the floor of the Tulsa Farm Show. The company introduced the second phase of its Kubota-branded Hay Tools, including round balers, bale wrappers and disc mower conditioners, during its National Dealer Meeting this October.

“When we introduce new products that complement Kubota’s current offering, which we’ve done in a big way this year, our customers are excited to buy them because the Kubota name on the side means quality; they trust that they’ll consistently be able to get the job done with our equipment,” said Todd Stucke, vice president, agriculture and turf equipment, Kubota.

John Scott, dealer principal of Kubota Center West Tulsa, sold the BV4180 premium baler to customer Frank Westbrook. “We were thrilled to learn that our sale of a Kubota round baler would be the first in the world,” said Scott. “But we’re even more excited to have provided Westbrook with a quality product that we know he’ll be very happy with for years to come. As his servicing dealer, we’re committed to making sure of that.”
