The magic of the farm!

 

 Just like the pencil from ‘shaka laka boom boom’ tractor can do anything required on a farm! Let’s know more about this wonder equipment!

 

1) Tractors are heavy engineering vehicles designed to provide high tractive effort (or torque) at slow speeds, such as those in agriculture, mining and construction.

 

2) A tillage machine is a farm vehicle used for tillage, a task that requires power and traction, but nowadays, they do many other things as well.

 

3) In the early 19th century, the first powered farming implement was the portable engine – a steam engine with wheels that could drive mechanical farm machinery using a flexible belt. “Barn engines” were first designed by Richard Trevithick in 1812, and the engines served to drive corn threshing machines.

4) William Tuxford of Boston, Lincolnshire, invented the portable engine four years later, in 1893. The steam piston engine had a locomotive-style boiler with horizontal smoke tubes.

 

5) In Clayton County, Iowa, the first gasoline/petrol-powered tractor was built by John Froelich in 1892.

 

6) Charles W. Hart and Charles H. Parr built the first successful American tractor. Charles City, Iowa, became their base of operations to manufacture two-cylinder gasoline engines.

7) The agricultural industry is one of the most hazardous in the United States, second only to mining. Due to its heavy loading and unique design, the tractor is unique among farm machines in causing agricultural hazards.

 

8) Agriculture is the industry that accounts for approximately 32% of fatalities and 6% of nonfatal injuries due to tractor-related incidents.

 

9). Tractors are used for pulling or pushing agricultural equipment, such as ploughs, discs, harrows, tractors, and planting equipment.
