Row Crop Tractors
Designed for row-cropped farming, these tractors provide high ground clearance to prevent crop damage. They are typically used for tillage, planting, and cultivation activities.
Bi-directional Tractors
Bi-directional tractors have the capability to face both forward and backward, allowing the operator to switch the direction of travel easily. They are used for specialized tasks like cutting hay and operating loader attachments.
High Crop Tractors
High crop tractors are designed with high ground clearance for high-growing crops such as cotton and corn. They avoid damaging the plants during cultivation or pesticide application.
Compact Utility Tractors
Compact utility tractors are smaller, more versatile machines that can be used in orchards and vineyards as they fit between rows. They are often equipped with a loader bucket.
Articulated 4WD Tractors
Articulated 4WD tractors have a hinge between the front and back axles, allowing great maneuverability. They are used for heavy-duty tasks like plowing and land reclamation.
Sub-Compact Tractors
Sub-compact tractors are the smallest tractors, suitable for landscaping tasks, mowing, and light materials handling. They are often used by hobby farmers or for small garden maintenance.
Industrial Tractors
Industrial tractors, also known as tuggers, are designed for construction uses rather than farming. They are often heavier and are used to move heavy equipment.
Utility Tractors
Utility tractors are multi-purpose vehicles used for plowing, pulling, powering farm equipment, and more. They are ideal for routine jobs in crop production and small-scale farming.
Track Tractors
Track tractors use tracks instead of wheels to distribute weight more evenly to reduce soil compaction. They are particularly effective in wet conditions or on uneven terrain.
Orchard Tractors
Orchard tractors are designed to navigate narrow rows and low-hanging branches, commonly used in orchards and vineyards to transport fruit and assist in maintenance tasks.
