Canadian manufacturer Versatile had its 405 articulated tractors on show at the Ploughing.

The tractors came from JPM Agriculture, the sole importer of Versatile equipment in the UK. This tractor was on display to show off the Cummins range of engines.

The tractor was displayed on behalf of Cummins, alongside MW Hire as their generators feature engines made by Cummins.

This tractor boasts an impressive Tier 5, Stage V compliant 11.8 litre Cummins QSG 12 engine offering a rated 400hp peaking at 450hp with 2169Nm of torque. The 405 includes a Caterpillar 16x4 Powershift transmission which give a maximum of 40km/h road speed and a large selection of working range gears for field applications, according to Versatile. It is programmable for auto-shifting and speed matching.
