What are the main uses of a farm tractor?

The primary purpose of agricultural tractors is to serve as power machinery for agricultural production. By attaching different implements or equipment, they can perform various field operations such as plowing, sowing, and harvesting. They can also be used for rural transportation and stationary work, making them one of the core pieces of equipment in modern agriculture.

1. Agricultural field operations

This is the tractor's primary use: performing all stages of farming by attaching different implements.
    • Land preparation: Using equipment such as plows, harrows, and rotary tillers, the land is tilled, broken up, and leveled in preparation for planting.
    • Sowing and Fertilizing: Utilizing matching seeders and fertilizer spreaders, this system ensures precise seed placement and even fertilizer application, improving planting efficiency.
    • Field management: Attach implements such as cultivators and sprayers to perform tasks such as weeding, soil loosening, and pest and disease control.
    • Harvesting operations: Working in conjunction with harvesting machines, threshing machines, etc., to complete the harvesting and initial processing of crops such as grain and cotton.

2. Rural transportation operations

By utilizing the pulling power of a tractor, trailers or wagons can be attached to transport agricultural products, fertilizers, pesticides, farm implements, and other materials. This is suitable for situations where ordinary vehicles have difficulty passing, such as field paths and rural roads, making it an important tool for short-distance transportation in rural areas.

3. Fixed power output operation

Some tractors can provide power to agricultural equipment such as threshing machines, winnowing machines, water pumps, and feed grinders through their power take-off (PTO) shafts, replacing separate electric motors or diesel engines and reducing equipment investment costs.

4. Specialized agricultural operations

For special scenarios such as orchards, greenhouses, and sloping fields, small or specialized tractors can be equipped with compatible implements to perform precise tasks such as fertilizing fruit trees, tilling soil in greenhouses, and weeding on slopes; they can also be used for auxiliary tasks such as pumping water for irrigation and clearing snow.
