Argo Tractors has pushed the boundaries of innovation in agricultural mechanisation. The Super, the newest offering from Landini, delivers exceptional power with increased hitch capacity, an easy-to-service design and a more comfortable cabin.
Two pillars combined to be a driving force behind farms of the world.
Argo Tractors has pushed the boundaries of innovation in agricultural mechanisation. Owned by the Italian family, Morra, Argo Tractors manufactures and services some of the most respected tractors and attachments in the world, supplying farmers with the equipment they need to stay productive.
Landini has deep roots in the specialist vineyard, orchard, vegetable and high-horsepower row-crop segments, and they understand how important reliable equipment is for farmers.
There’s always a need for more in the agricultural industry—more power, more efficiency and more production. The Super, the newest offering from Landini, delivers exceptional power with increased hitch capacity, an easy-to-service design and a more comfortable cabin. “When we designed the Landini Super, we wanted to be at the forefront in terms of innovation,” says Antonio Salvaterra, Argo Tractors Marketing Director. “We listen to the needs of our customers and made a tractor that has new functions to reach higher performance levels, while at the same time improving the design with European style.”
Robust machinery like the Landini Super requires a reliable engine. The proven performance of Perkins 1104D-44T in tough, large-scale agricultural conditions makes it a perfect fit. Plus, the Perkins 1104D-44T delivers in a challenging South African climate that consists of high levels of dust and extreme temperatures. Varied terrain and the inconsistent availability of quality fuel also present a challenge met by the 1104D-44T.
Increased function and power can be difficult to implement while meeting sustainability goals, and South Africa continues to move towards stricter emission standards. Through relentless research and development, Argo Tractors worked with Perkins to supply the power for the Landini Super. The Perkins 1104D-44T delivers excellent fuel efficiency to decrease the overall cost of equipment ownership for Argo Tractors’ customers while meeting EU Stage II/IIIA and U.S. EPA Tier 2/Tier 3 equivalent emission standards.
In farming, equipment downtime can lead to significant financial losses. Landini customers need dependable tractors and immediate support, which is why Argo Tractors relies on the robust Perkins Distributor Network. Any engine issues can be addressed with quick solutions to get customers back up and running. Businesses in South Africa can rely on both the international expertise and tailored, on-the-ground service of Perkins dealers.
The Morra family doesn’t rest. With the needs of farmers across the globe constantly changing, there will always be demand for innovation in agriculture equipment. Argo Tractors and Perkins will continue to work together to find ways to give farmers support through superior products.
At the heart of the Landini Super is a Perkins® 1104D-44T engine. This smooth, quiet 4-litre powerhouse has been specifically designed for use in territories with Stage II/IIIA and Tier 2/3 equivalent emission standards, using advanced technologies to ensure a reliable and easy-to-maintain machine.
