Kubota is a Japanese multinational corporation based in Osaka. The corporation produces many products including tractors and other agricultural machinery, construction equipment, engines, vending machines, pipe and valves. Also, the Japanese company manufactures cast metal, pumps, and equipment for water purification, sewage treatment and air conditioning.
