Did you know? Honda introduced the world’s first three-wheeled ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicles) to the United States in 1970. These early models were advertised and sold as recreational or sporting vehicles. They were even featured in the popular James Bond film “Diamonds Are Forever.”
When the gas scarcity came, buyers began purchasing ATVs as utility vehicles, despite the fact that they were originally designed for sportsmen. This was due to the fact that ATVs were much less expensive than tractors and used only 8% of the fuel that tractors used. Farmers also quickly discovered that ATVs could be very useful in agriculture and farming.
Today, farmers use ATVs to move through all unreachable areas of their properties such as farms, ranches, orchards, ornamental nurseries, and forests. ATVs are indeed the perfect substitute for trucks, horses, and walking.
What are the different uses of ATVs?
In addition to being used as a mobility device, ATVs can be used by farmers to manage their farm operations such as inspecting crops and livestock herding and protecting livestock and transporting crops/fruits/vegetables and supplies. ATVs have attachments that can be used to fertilize and apply chemicals, repair irrigation systems and fence lines, mark timbers, mow grass, and move dirt.
ATVs are lightweight utility vehicles that are high-performance. There are many different types of ATVs designed for farm and ranch use out on the market. Choose the best one for you by checking out our list of Top 10 ATVs for your farm below.
