The foundation of civilization was laid quite literally by the advent of agriculture. Hunter gatherers started settling down in small numbers only expanding in time to become cities and kingdoms. That’s why despite the rise of new industries and several revolutions, 40% of the global population still earns their livelihood from agriculture. Thus, agriculture paved the way for other professions to flourish and radically reformed nearly every aspect of human society.
Times have changed exponentially and agriculture itself has transformed today. The introduction of agricultural tractors marked a pivotal moment in farming, revolutionising the industry and significantly enhancing farmers' health and safety. The shift towards mechanisation reduced the physical burden on farmers, allowing them to work more efficiently and with less strain. The advancement in farm machinery, including front end loaders, rotavators, cultivators, harrows, ploughs and many more tractor implements has further helped farmers increase their productivity for longer duration.
Tractor prices vary and availability of cheap and affordable tractors are key decision making points for smaller farmers. Farmers can now invest in reliable machinery like compact tractors that offer similar benefits with enhanced maneuverability for smaller farms that sit well within their budget.
Yesteryear’s agriculture reminds one, images of farmers toiling hard in the heat for endless hours causing extreme fatigue. Today, it is a different scenario as we can see farmers riding valiantly on reliable tractors, working efficiently with modern technology at their fingertips. Truly, technology has changed the landscape of farming and agriculture, enhancing farmers’ health, safety, and the promise of a fruitful future.
