Top 10 Tractor Manufacturing Companies in India 2023
In this post, we are going to discuss the top 10 tractor companies in India.
India is a developing country, and we owe this development to the farmers of our country. Around 60 – 70% of the Indian population directly or indirectly depends upon the Agriculture sector.
Earlier, farmers used to plow their land using wooden plows then the iron plows came to use. So as we can see, we have been modernizing our farming methods with time. And it is time when we replace mules and bulls with heavy machines and tractors.
In the world of automobiles, tractors play a major role. It is just not used in the fields but can also be used for other purposes too. But my friends, just like any other automobile or equipment, you must keep in mind about your requirements. If you have a small field, then buying a heavy-powered tractor would only prove to be a blatant mistake. You must learn to invest carefully as it is not every day you would be buying a tractor. Keep this stuff in mind before you choose the right beast suited for you.
On how many acres of land are you planning to work on and for what type of applications you would need your tractor?
The priority of the works you wish to engage in? You must prioritize your tasks as it would help you bring you one step closer to choosing the perfect tractor for you. It helps you decide the correct horsepower range, lift, and hydraulic capacity, etc.
Do you feel the need for diversified functionality of a loader mounted at the front of your tractor?? This would help you determine if you need a four-wheel drive and a hydraulic capacity.
Are you looking for an automatic-like transmission or are you old school and like to prefer manual clutching and shifting? You should definitely take this into consideration while choosing your tractor.
And yes, of course, it depends on your budget too. Many people buy stuff which they don’t need or use rarely at great cost. You definitely don’t want to make the same mistake.
Think carefully about the smallest area of land you would have to navigate your tractor through. It would not look good if your tractor gets stuck in the same closed region, would it?
How much are you into the comfort zone, I mean the heating and air conditioning?? Would you like to operate from inside a cab or would it be fine anyway? (You can work for longer hours comfortably if working inside a cab).
What is the overall reputation and customer service of the brand you are opting to choose? Always remember that good customer service must always be preferred. Do not forget to take the warranty factor into consideration, but also remember that the warranty period offered isn’t always an indication of quality. Sometimes, brands that offer longer warranty periods may not always provide more reliable equipment.
Last but not least, just ride out the tractor and decide for yourself. So we would like to bring out some perfect brands to choose from.
