KUBOTA Tractor Australia (KTA) has donated a tractor with front end loader to The Victorian Farmers Federation (VFF) to aid in a Bushfire Recovery Fencing Project as a part of the major clean up the state has been left with resulting from the fires on Black Saturday in February 2009.
Kubota Dealership Godings Dealer Principal Ian Goding says they provided a 50HP, Kubota MX5100 for the work. He says it is an excellent basic machine that is easy to use and will keep on going for a long time.
The MX5100 is a popular model in Kubota larger M-Series range of tractors. It boasts impressive power, outstanding versatility and reliability, combined with the power of a larger M-Series but with the usability of a utility sized L-Series, making it a do it all tractor.
Alex and Julie Sutherland of the VFF are co-ordinating the rescue project and have already covered over approx 300km of fencing helped along by over 300 volunteers and 2200 hours to date with the project running 7 days per week.
Currently the tractor is in the Kinglake area being used to secure more perimeter fencing for locals in need. If you would like to volunteer please phone Alex or Julie Sutherland on 9714 8307, or 0408 311 212
