Vario header

Lexion Vario headers designed for canola, wheat, barley, rye and other small grain crops are now available.

Bob Armstrong, North American product marketing manager for Claas, said the hydraulically adjustable table in the Vario header improves feeding and crop flow of small grains into the combine feeder house in a variety of conditions.

In small grains, the table can extend forward eight inches or move back four inches on the go from its centre position, improving the header crop flow as the height of the crop warrants.

VIDEO: Green Lightning and Nytro Ag win sustainability innovation award

Nytro Ag Corp and Green Lightning recieved an innovation award at Ag in Motion 2025 for the Green Lightning Nitrogen Machine, which converts atmospheric nitrogen into a plant-usable form.

For direct cut canola harvesting, optional vertical knives driven from the header cut through the standing crop. Armstrong said table sections can be inserted by hand, allowing another 12 inches to catch additional canola and minimize canola grain loss.

New Kubota tractors

Kubota has announced two new models to

its M-Series.

The M95SDS and M105SDS ROPS tractors are powered by a four-valve per cylinder, turbo diesel Kubota engine that incorporates a waste-gate and intercooling system.

The 32×32 transmission with hydraulic shuttle has the swing shift system that allows for a two-speed range shift without having to stop. With the click of a switch, the dual speed feature provides an instant pulling power boost.

Also, Kubota’s bevel gear, sealed front axle has no U-joints to bind, giving a smooth power flow and tight turning radius.

The side-mounted exhaust system gives better visibility, the large wrap-around front grill allows the engine to breathe easily and the high-mounted headlights are ideal for loader work.

Bobcat joystick

Selectable joystick controls are now available on Bobcat S130 and T140 loaders.

These controls give operators better access to drive and hydraulic controls and improved speed and horsepower management.

The SJC option allows operators to choose between ISO or conventional skid-steer H control patterns. When the Bobcat SJC switch is in the ISO position, the left joystick operates the drive functions, and the right joystick controls the lift and tilt functions.

In the H position, the left joystick controls the left wheels and lift arm function, while the right joystick controls the right wheels and the

attachment tilt functions.

The option also features horsepower management to maximize pushing and digging power and hand engine speed controls with an accelerator foot pedal. The speed management feature, which can be activated from inside the cab, provides more consistent loader and

attachment performance while

minimizing strain on operators.
