Kubota
Tractor Corporation
Headquarters: Torrance, California, U.S.A.
The Kubota tractor has its roots on the Japanese farm. Although Japanese
farms are traditionally smaller than those in America, the need for
high performance and powerful maneuverability is the same. Kubota
Corporation introduced its first tractor to the United States in 1969.
Filling a product void in the American marketplace, the Kubota 21
horsepower L200 was an overnight success. As a result, Kubota Tractor
Corporation (KTC) was formed in 1972 and the company introduced its
first 12 h.p. four-wheel drive tractor in 1974. Although four-wheel
drive was common among larger American tractors, it was unheard of
in the compact sector and became a benchmark for the industry.

Over
the past quarter century, KTC has continued to expand its product
line, with four lines of tractors, the BX, B, L and M Series. Kubota
has successfully introduced compact construction equipment, turf equipment,
lawn and garden equipment, pumps, generators and a variety of Performance-Matched
implements and attachments. KTC is now the leading marketer and distributor
of under 40-h.p. tractors in the United States, offering more than
80 tractor models.
