Mitas brings improved soil protection with the new AGRITERRA 02 SP

The tire is designed to provide farmers with decreased pressure on the ground and a larger footprint leading to greater soil protection and therefore increased yields. “Due its flexible and very strong VF sidewall construction, the AGRITERRA 02 SP enables safe operation at lower inflation pressures.

This increases the tire’s footprint by up to 25%, in turn reducing soil pressure by up to 20%. It enhances soil condition thanks to significantly reduced soil compaction,” explains Pavel Kott, Product Manager for Mitas agricultural tires.

With its high load capacity and maximum speed of 65 kilometers per hour, the AGRITERRA 02 SP means fewer journeys are needed to transport loads and also enables fast on-road movement, providing significant time savings. The tire is suitable for on- and off-road use and its excellent self-cleaning capabilities reduce road soiling when leaving the field.

Due to the special hexagonal bead wire, the tire is able to operate at lower inflation without limiting its lifespan. Moreover, the AGRITERRA 02 SP tread pattern, with its rounded shoulders, is very gentle on grassland. All these features deliver clear productivity benefits to farmers using agricultural trailers, spreaders, tankers, and other towing equipment for which the new tire is designed.

“With the AGRITERRA 02 SP, we decided to offer the first trailer radial tire enhanced with the VF technology we have been successfully using for many years, for example on our tractor tires. This significantly improves the tire’s characteristics, offering maximum soil protection together with higher load capacity, with a corresponding positive effect on operating efficiency in terms of money and time savings at the end of the farmer’s day,” says Kott.
