The Alliance 398 Multipurpose Tire (MPT) from Alliance Tire Group (ATG)—a high-speed radial farm tire rated to 62 mph on the road and capable of providing low-compaction, high-traction performance in the field—won a silver medal in the Agritechnica Innovation Award program. The J-rated Alliance 398 MPT is designed to enhance the performance of heavy trucks and trailers that are used both in the field and on the road, including manure tanks, feed trucks and trucks used to haul grain. Its U.S. launch was at last year's Farm Progress Show and will be on display at this year's Agritechnica.

The new Alliance Agriflex+ 372 VF CFO tire from Alliance Tire Group is rated to carry 186 percent of the load of a comparably sized standard radial tire when operating at harvest speeds of under 10 mph. The new tire is a VF800/65R32 CFO, which replaces the 30.5R32 tires commonly found on many grain carts and Class V, VI and VII harvesters. It is rated for loads as high as 26,370 pounds when used in cyclic conditions, such as harvest.

Times are tough in the business of farming; margins are decreasing, input costs are rising, and the weather is as unpredictable as ever. While we frequently talk about how we’re developing new and innovative application-specific tires to help farmers meet the challenges facing them, this is only one way that the Alliance Tire Group is working to help farmers improve financial stability—not just today, but for generations to come. One of the most interesting projects we’re currently working on is a collaboration with two Iowa-based businesses at the cutting-edge of out-of-the-box thinking and innovation: Cedar Valley Innovation and Precision Inflation.
