Farming contractors face a unique set of challenges daily—whether it’s navigating soft, muddy fields or hauling heavy loads on the road, equipment must perform at its peak. Tyres play a critical role in ensuring efficiency, durability, and versatility. Agrigear, the appointed importer of BKT tyres throughout Ireland, proudly offers a range designed to meet these demands head-on.

BKT provides cutting-edge solutions tailored to meet the demanding needs of farming professionals, ensuring maximum performance in both fieldwork and transport operations.
The Challenges Farming Contractors Face
Farming contractors operate in varied and often unpredictable conditions, requiring tyres that can adapt to different terrains while delivering high traction and load-bearing capacity. Whether working on soft, muddy fields or compact, dry soil, the right tyre makes all the difference. Contractors also require tyres that minimize soil compaction, improve fuel efficiency, and withstand the demands of long service hours. Additionally, comfort and safety during road transfers are essential to reducing operator fatigue and enhancing overall efficiency.
