I'm not 100% sure that Kubota doesn't use a planetary reduction drives in their front axles. I've never had one apart,(I'll let that speak for itself), but looking at the parts diagram for an M6030DT, there is a planetary gear-set in there. Power goes through the bevel gears at high speed, and the bevel gear is also the sun gear for the planet gear set. Sun gear spins carrier, and speed is reduced. So you still get planetary reduction, but without the disadvantages of u-joints. They're not all like that, but a lot of them are.
