LS Tractor was excited to participate in the 27th annual Keystone Farm Show in York, Pennsylvania earlier this month. Keystone is the largest commercial farm equipment and service provider trade show in the state of Pennsylvania. The show targets full-time farmers in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and Virginia, and is one of the fastest growing farm shows on the East Coast. This year, exhibitors set up booths in eight buildings as well as many outside displays. The show’s tagline is “The Farm Show for Farmers”, and features many types of equipment, products and services farmers need to keep their business efficient and profitable. Visitors are able to explore all types of farm equipment, services and products and have access to representatives at each booth to answer questions about their current needs.
The 2025 Keystone Farm Show took place January 7th– 9th at York Fairgrounds. The number of exhibitors has tripled since Keystone started in 1998, and LS Tractor was pleased to be one of over 400 agri-businesses to display equipment, services and products for farm operations. The LS Tractor exhibit showcased four tractor models ranging from sub-compact to utility sizes. “Attendees were impressed with the value of our tractors” said Kevin Pettiford, LS Tractor Marketing Manager. Many visitors expressed appreciation for LS Tractor’s participation and their willingness to assist with which tractor would best meet their needs in terms of horsepower and budget. Many visitors were surprised to learn that LS Tractor prices are lower than their competitors.
A local dealer, Barlow Ag Service and Sales out of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, proudly represented LS Tractor and eagerly greeted visitors to assist with inquiries about our tractors. Sales Representative, Tanner Byers has been with Barlow Ag Service since September, and was excited to participate at the LS Tractor exhibit. He enjoyed engaging in giveaways and educating those who stopped by through answering questions and providing brochures. Byers stated “There are several reasons we are winning over customers. We offer financing that stacks up just as well or better than other competing brands.” Byers also shared an attendee’s testimony who was comparing tractor brands. The customer tested out a competitor tractor to a comparable LS Tractor at the show. Not only could he see the front loader from the driver seat of the LS Tractor and could not from the competitor, but the price for the LS Tractor was $10K cheaper! From design to financing to pricing, Byers conveyed why LS Tractor easily wins over customers.
With over 12,000 attendees at this year’s Keystone event, LS Tractor is excited about what we have to offer these potential customers in the agricultural field. Whether someone is a full-time farmer or a common everyday customer, LS Tractor has a model that will fit anyone’s needs. We were honored to participate in the Keystone Farm Show this year, and we look forward to sharing more about our tractors and equipment at several upcoming trade shows. Find all our 2025 shows here.
