And on the BioDiesel tractor horrizon. Quoted from this month's December 2006 issue of Diesel Progress North American magazine.

"The biodiesel bandwagon continues to grow as two more equipment manufacturers have endorsed the use of the fuel in their machines. Kubota Tractor Corp. announced the use of B5 biodiesel fuels in specified Kubota diesel powered products. The company said that Kubota dealers could provide information on current Kubota model tractors aproved for B5 biodiesel fuel usage."

"Case IH has now approved B20 in most Case IH engines and B5 in all Case IH engines. In addition, Case IH uses biodiesel blends as the factory fill in most cases. Case IH agricultural equipment fully supports use of B5 blends on all engines it manufacturers. B20 is approved for use in all Case IH engines other than common rail. In addition, field testing is being conducted to determine performance levels of blends up to 100% biodiesel as part of a program to ensure maximum productivity and engine durability."
