Verdict: Kubota M4700 vs Kubota M5030

The Kubota M4700 and the Kubota M5030 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Kubota M4700 leads on rated power with 51 hp against 50 hp. Kubota M4700 is the lighter machine (3,748 kg vs 4,188 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
