GRAPEVINE, Texas (RFD News) — New equipment transaction data shows Kubota has ranked as the number one-selling tractor brand in the U.S. for 20 consecutive years.

Kubota Tractor Corporation President Alex Woods joined us on Thursday’s Market Day Report to discuss the milestone and what has kept customers coming back.
