Review of popular tractor models

Despite the fact that new tractor models are constantly appearing on the market, the top sales are consistently occupied by proven models made according to Soviet models. Their advantages over more technologically advanced products include: reliability, unpretentiousness, maintainability, simplicity and low cost of maintenance.

Large businesses prefer products from world leaders - modern tractors made in Sweden or Japan are superior in terms of comfort and safety, and are also more economical in fuel consumption.

Valtra

F series

As reported, at the Agritechnica-2019 exhibition the debut of a new series of tractors from the Finnish Valtra took place.

The manufacturer for a long time adhered to the symbolic classification of its machines: A, N, T, S. The names of the tractor series consisted of the word ants - “ants”. However, with the development of the Valtra model range, it became tight within this framework.

The new series is called F and combines specialized machines with power from 75 to 105 hp. Transmission – manual 24+24R, Power Shuttle 24+12R is also available.

The compact Valtra F Series are designed primarily for work in orchards and vineyards. This is facilitated by the width of the machines - from 1.3 to 1.8 m. The specially shaped chassis in combination with the front axle provides a steering angle of 55°. The turning radius is only 3.6 m.

Modern tractor Kirovets

But the mini-tractor is still not intended for work on a large scale, since it is not as powerful as, for example, the Kirovets tractor, K774 P line.

In 2012, “Kirovets” was updated and currently, the production of radical new models of the K-9000 series, the sixth generation, has been launched. They not only changed their appearance, but were also equipped with new developments aimed at making the work of machine operators more comfortable.

The new Kirovets are capable of working together with other modern equipment for agricultural purposes, such as those currently present on the domestic agricultural machinery market. Thus, the new K-9000 model has become much more productive compared to the previous ones.
