Increased output, less wheel slip and reduced fuel consumption are benefits of the extending tractor weight developed by Italian farmer Sandro Dini

Called Ali, which in Italian means wings, the novel front concept was labelled as a technical innovation at the 2016 Italian EIMA show. The technique does not allow the tractor to fly, but the benefit of being able to position the ballast block up to 1.0m in front of the tractor is certainly worthy of closer inspection.
