ARA and Kubota unite for 2025 races

Kubota Tractor Corporation has announced a one-year collaboration as the presenting sponsor for the 2025 American Rally Association (ARA) Championships. Through this partnership, Kubota gains the title of Official Land Management Equipment for the ARA and becomes the presenting sponsor for the eight-event ARA National Championship, as well as its East, Central, and West Regional Championships. 

“The ARA and rally racing community is built on a passion for driving and the outdoor experience, which is what makes this partnership such a natural fit,” said Theresa Duncan, Associate Director for Marketing and Advertising, Kubota Tractor Corporation. “With the growth stage rally has seen over the last several years, and the excitement it brings to our customers and this dedicated community of fans, we’re looking forward to going the distance with ARA.” 

Kubota’s presence at each ARA event in 2025 will include an interactive booth in the Parc Expose, showcasing equipment, engaging fans with giveaways, and hosting special activities. The company will also supply RTVs for race operations and organize a “Part”ner Parts & Service Booth to support teams with reliable replacement parts during race weekends. 

“Our sport is a tightknit community of teams, volunteers and fans, a diverse group of likeminded people who share a passion for authentic automotive adventure,” said Preston Osborn, ARA Series Manager. “Kubota and the folks of ‘Kubota Country’ are going to fit right in, and we’re thrilled to welcome them into our community. Together, we’re going to make the sport of rally bigger and better for everyone.” 

While this marks Kubota’s first official stage rally sponsorship, the company has a history of supporting motorsports, including NASCAR and dirt track racing. Kubota also collaborates with prominent rally figures like Rhianon Gelsomino, co-driver for Travis Pastrana, and Alex Gelsomino, co-driver for Conner Martell. 

The ARA, recognized as the largest rally series in the United States, provides a national platform for the sport of stage rally. The 2025 season promises excitement, kicking off with the Sno*Drift Rally in Michigan on February 7-8, and concluding with the Lake Superior Performance Rally in October.

Video: Preparing for Lambing Season | Handling Pregnant Ewes Safely

Handling pregnant ewes safely is the highlight of today's sheep farming vlog at Ewetopia Farms as we do final preparations for lambing season. With lambing season only days away, today’s focus is transforming our breeding barn into a lambing barn. This means cleaning out the last of the barns, removing old bedding, and laying fresh straw for our pregnant ewes. A big part of the process is safely moving our Suffolk and Dorset sheep to transform their breeding pens into their pens for lambing.
