    "summary": "The video features a rare Lamborghini R904 DT tractor, produced between 1972 and 1979, owned by Larry Wiggins in Memphis, Missouri. Wiggins explains he bought three of these economical, air-cooled tractors for farming, noting they were significantly cheaper than John Deere models at the time. He now houses them in a museum, where they attract interest from tractor clubs who are often unaware of Lamborghini's history in agricultural machinery. The video also highlights the revival of the \"Barnwarming\" tradition at the University of Missouri's College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, which began in 1904.",

  "transcript": "Well from right here in the Show Me State, we have something special to share with you, a stunning Lamborghini tractor. These machines were a rare sight in the US with very few making the journey across the Atlantic. This particular model rolled off the production line between 1972 and 1979, making it a true piece of agricultural history. We bought three of these that we farmed with. They're very economical, they're an air-cooled engine, and they were made by Ferruccio Lamborghini. I was looking for a farm tractor and a John Deere was going to cost about twice what these Lamborghinis cost, so we bought a Lamborghini tractor. They have front-wheel assist and they were ahead of their time really. So that's that's why we bought a Lamborghini tractor. And then we got one, and then we bought another one, and another one, and and and we farmed with them. These are work tractors and now we've we've got them in our museum building, all but three of them, and one of them we're restoring right now. We have large tractor clubs come from all over the country and they have never seen one. And they all are very interested in them and they want to hear them run and see us drive them and everything, and and but they haven't never seen one. And they know about the Lamborghini cars, but they don't know about the tractors. Well, speaking of history, as we close out our show from Mighty Mizzou this weekend, not only is it the Ag Day game this week right here on this field, but it's also the College of Agriculture Food and Natural Resources Ag Week. So an entire week focused on bringing the best of the college together while celebrating the students and staff. And this year, a special tradition is making a return. Because it's been over 20 years since there's been a Barnwarming. And so a lot of the students have no concept of what it is. Dr. Bryan Garton was one of a few different faculty members who brought the idea to students. He said, 'Let's bring back a tradition, the annual Barnwarming, which started here at Mizzou in 1904.' And it's not just students who are making this tradition possible, but also alumni. I think it's, well, the other aspect was we wanted to make sure that alumni had an opportunity to come back. I mean, the people of my generation, we remember it fondly. We want it to go well and people enjoy it and people say, 'Oh, you got to keep this up.' We love tradition. And it's been a wonderful to be here at my alma mater for the college road show stop this week. Thanks to everyone at the University of Missouri, as also my Farm Journal teammates who made this a very special visit this week. The energy, the crowd, the research, what a week. We'll be back in the studio next weekend as we work to build on our tradition. Have a great weekend everyone.",
