Accessible Tractor

[Karen Ozmun]

for those of you who are interested in AT for farm applications, recently
we received information and a promotional video about the "Ventrac"
tractor ... "designed to provide people with physical disabilities the
opportunity to enhance their employability nad independence in the
workplace and around the farm/home."  

the tractor has a wheelchair lift/platform from which it can be operated
and has easily accessible hand controls, including those for attachments
for mowing the lawn, hauling heavy objects, or blowing leaves. 

if you'd like more information about the Ventrac:
