Reliability, intuitive use, technology that is always updated and competent customer service make Landini tractors the perfect solution for all working, company and specialist needs.

Test track
A test track has been built at the Shipping Terminal in Fabbrico. It is 55,000 m² and means that tractors can be tested to a level of precision, reliability and in safety, conforming to the highest production standards of the new product ranges.
Xtractor
49 days to complete the Xtractor expedition, a journey around South Africa in four McCormick X8 and X7 series tractors. This expedition aimed to discover nature and carry a message of friendship and humanity.
The docu-reality began in Cape Town and ended in Pretoria on 20 May 2018. The caravan of four tractors covered almost 8,000 kilometres across desert, the savana and its magnificent animals, the coastline and the stunning Dragon Mountain. As well as being an adventure voyage, the expedition made a solid contribution to the South African community.
Led by volunteers from the Carabinieri and at a top speed of 50 km/h, the explorers crossed the Kalahari desert and ventured into the immense Kruger national park, catching sight of leopards, lions and rare rhynos.
