A tractor is a very important machine on a farm today as it is able to turn it’s engine to many jobs!
Crop Spraying
The crop sprayer can be attached to the tractor and allows the farmer to spray the crops with herbicides, fungicides or insecticides.
Planting Crops – Seed Potatoes
The potato planter can be attached to the back of the tractor and sows the seed potatoes into the ground at the correct spacing and then covers them over with the soil.
Feeding Animals – Silage Feeder
Through the Winter the silage feeder is permanently attached to one of our tractors so that the cattle can be fed silage twice daily whilst they are in the fold yard.
Preparing The Land – Rolling The Soil
The rollers are attached to the back of the tractor and are used to firm the top of the soil after seeds have been planted.
Here are just a few of the many jobs assigned to the tractor. Jump aboard the tractor again soon to find out what other jobs the tractor can turn it’s engine to!
