You can easily do this even in a language like C#, it's just that the syntactic overhead can be a bit much:

    interface Transducer<A,B> {
        Func<R,B,R> Apply<R>(Func<R,A,R> f);
    }

That's awesome! I wasn't aware C# had them.

I took this as a challenge. I wasn't entirely confident with my understanding, so I created a fully realized version in C# available here: https://github.com/bmurphy1976/transducers-dotnet

Yes, higher rank types are no problem for C# or Java generics. It's higher-kinder types that are unavailable.
