Storms are getting stronger with climate change
From devastating typhoons to icy winter storms, global climate experts agree: rising temperatures and warmer oceans are fueling more intense storms and rainfall. These trends include increased storm intensity, unpredictable rainfall, and wider regional impact. Hurricanes are carrying stronger winds and heavier rainfall. Some regions face drought, while others deal with torrential flooding, and storms are pushing farther inland and hitting unexpected areas with force. The result? A growing need for year-round land readiness, not just emergency planning.

Hurricanes present serious risks for farmers
For those who live and work close to the land, hurricanes are a major threat to livelihoods. With flooding comes saturated soil, crop loss, and long-term damage to fields. Debris such as fallen trees, damaged structures, and blocked access roads can cause further disruption and delay recovery efforts. Additional infrastructure damage to fences and irrigation can also lead to devastating impact. But with the right strategies and equipment, losses can be minimized and recovery can begin immediately.

Tractor solutions for every stage of the storm
A dependable tractor is more than a convenience; it’s central to any hurricane readiness plan. Be sure to inspect and maintain the tractor’s fluids, tires, hydraulics, and implements to make sure it’s ready to go.

Preparing before the storm 
- Grade roads and clear debris to ensure safe access and minimize flood risk.
- Reinforce structures and secure loose materials using a loader.
- Dig drainage ditches or embankments with a backhoe to direct water flow.

Safety during the storm
- Store your tractor on high ground, away from trees and power lines.
- Disconnect the battery and secure implements in the event of flood risk.
- Stay informed via weather alerts and follow local emergency guidance.

Recovery after the storm 
- Use a grapple or front loader to clear debris from roads, fields, and structures.
- Regrade damaged terrain and repair erosion with a rear blade or box blade.
- Transport fencing, tools, and other construction materials for rebuilding.
