Farm Tractor Fact

The word tractor originated from the Latin word "trahere," meaning pull. You commonly see a tractor on farms used to push agricultural machineries or trailers that plough or harrow fields.

The first tractors from the 1800s and early 1900s, were powered by steam engines. The successors were built with an internal combustion engine.

Modern tractors are built with a rollover protection system (ROPS) that protects the operator from being crushed in the event that the vehicle rolls over. Technology has found its way into modernizing the tractor. Nowadays, you find Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and on-board computers attached to farm tractors. With the use of advance technology, corporate-scale farms are using a combination of unmanned tractors and manually driven vehicles to plow through fields.

Aside from the standard farm tractors, there are other types of tractors. There are the backhoe tractors used for construction, small demolitions, and light transportation, powering building equipment, digging holes, breaking asphalt and paving roads. Tractors can also be fitted with engineering tools for construction purposes. Road tractors that are often used for freight transfers are also available, and locomotive tractors are used in railway vehicles. Artillery tractors used by the military to tow artillery pieces can also be seen.

Modern Tractors

Tractors have come a long way from the steam powered tractors of the early 20th century. With new safety features, the latest technology and increased efficiency, the modern tractor has made farm life easier and more productive than ever. Tractor roll overs have traditionally been the source of many farm fatalities and injuries, but the addition of roll over protection systems, ROPS for short, has significantly reduced the amount of roll over fatalities.

In addition, old tractors never had seatbelts, the addition of seatbelts or harnesses plus the ROPS system has further decreased fatalities during tractor roll overs.
