In the Soviet era, Russian engineering was oriented towards the production of agricultural machinery for use in large farms - state farms, collective farms, state enterprises, timber industry. At that time, there was almost no domestic equipment, which has small dimensions for use by private consumers. Today, the realities have changed, and Russian compact tractors are beginning to compete successfully with European, Japanese and Chinese equipment.
The scope of application of mini-tractors and their advantages
The popularity of mini tractors is due, first of all, to their small size, versatility, small price.
In private farms without mechanization of labor is indispensable. Mototechnics are needed everywhere: in the processing of land, harvesting, sowing, forage preparation. Large tractors are too cumbersome for such work, too expensive, and their high power will not be used at full strength. Motor-cultivators and motor-blocks, on the contrary, are low-power and too small. Therefore, for a farm, compact tractors with attachments of various types are the best way out.
They have compact tractors and other applications - municipal utilities.
