Today more and more people are choosing working small and large farms around the United States.  These farms are producing a variety of organic and non-organic food items including fruits, vegetables, daily products and various meat products.  While often farmers will utilize a large tractor for many farm functions, many farmers are seeing specialty carts as a viable and economical option for many farm functions.  In addition to the reduced operating costs, farmers find these specialty golf carts affordable and much more convenient to operate in and around barns and livestock areas. 

Typically these specialty carts are two-wheel drive and are powered with a traditional gas engine. These specialty vehicles are built around an extremely strong frame and offer high ground clearance as well as off road tires.  In addition to being able to carry two workers, many of these carts are equipped with a lightweight, yet strong, polyethylene dump bed, which allows a variety of items to be hauled around the property.  The items that the can be hauled include dirt, sand, hay, fertilizer, feed, water and produce. 

Depending upon the manufacturer, standard features include hydraulic shock absorbers, a front brush guard, rear hitch receiver and a horn.  Optional features allow the vehicle to be fully customizable depending upon the user’s needs.  Available options include optional wheels and tires, turn signals with 4-way flashers, differential guard, rear view mirrors, taillights, weather enclosure, hard cab, power dump bed, limited slip differential, floor mounted gun rack, aluminum bed, roof and windshield and a front basket.  

Many farmers are finding specialty farm vehicles to be extremely useful, while positively impacting the farm’s bottom line as a result of reduced operating costs!
