Solectrac Dealer Network Expands to 73 Locations

35 tractor-equipment dealers, representing 73 locations across the country, recently started selling the fast-growing, electric tractor brand, Solectrac, in response to the accelerated movement towards fully-electric solutions. The partnerships will appeal to customers seeking fuel and maintenance cost savings, as well as health and environmental benefits, without sacrificing power or tractor performance.

Solectrac tractors are the first of their kind to be made available nationwide by local dealers. The Solectrac e25G is a 4WD, 25 HP-category machine ideal for hobby farms, homesteaders, golf courses, sports fields, equestrian centers, educational institutions and municipalities. The tractor accepts all standard PTO implements, and offers available options such as a front loader, backhoe attachment, cab, and three types of tires to suit a wide variety of applications. Additional models are scheduled for release later this year.

“Solectrac is changing the lives of farmers, homesteaders, and ranchers,” said Chris Mundy, owner of Columbiana Tractor in Westover, AL “This tractor does everything a diesel tractor does and does it with instant torque and zero emissions. The benefits of these tractors go far beyond the environment. They produce significantly less noise and no diesel particulates, making them safer and healthier for operators, crops, livestock and for indoor use.”

Video: Grains on Tap | Episode 1: MP Branden Leslie

Our journey through the corridors of power and the fields of grain begins with a special guest, Branden Leslie, Member of Parliament for Portage-Lisgar and a proud alumnus of the Grain Growers of Canada. Branden, a native of Portage La Prairie, Manitoba, brings a wealth of knowledge from his time as a political advisor and his tenure as the manager of policy and government relations with the GGC, to his recent election to the House of Commons.

As we sit down with Branden on a late Friday afternoon, fresh from his duties at the House of Commons, we'll dive into the intersection of agriculture and politics, his journey from advocacy to elected office, and how these experiences shape his views on the future of Canadian agriculture. And, as we're doing this over a couple of well-deserved beers, we'll also touch on the lighter side of life, including Brandon's recent venture into fatherhood.
