Lilley speaks to BDN about tractor fuel efficiency
The Bangor Daily News interviewed Jason Lilley, sustainable agriculture professional with University of Maine Cooperative Extension, about how to stretch fuel efficiency for even the oldest farm tractors. Lilley recommended looking at the tractor’s tires first, saying, “Take a look at your tires and your ballast weight on the tires. You also want to make sure your tires are gripping so you are not continually spinning in place.”
