A revolutionary concept. Farmer’s could concentrate on feeding the world rather than several teams of animals… amazing technological advancement for the benefit of all mankind!

Those old tractors are designed under the philosophy of "give me a long enough lever. I can move the world ".

@ajaxvarble 2 жыл бұрын

They could work about the same speed as a good team of horses. Just they wouldn't have to stop for rests or water. Really the only benefit of using tractor at the time was so small farm holdings didn't have to have (or barrow) three teams of horses for continues working. So honestly they could do anywhere from 3 to 6 acres of plowing in a day. Sometimes they would hitch two tractors together with a winch and pull a plow back and forth witch would over double there efforts.

@michaelhalsall5684 2 жыл бұрын

These big tractors were mainly used on large wheat farms and were often refered to as "prairie tractors". Smaller farms general have tractors until the 1920s and later.

@trevorn9381 2 жыл бұрын

@@michaelhalsall5684 Most smaller farms didn't have tractors until after WWII. I grew up on a 200 acre farm and the people my dad bought the farm from in 1971 didn't have electricity or indoor plumbing in the farmhouse until 1947 and they didn't get a tractor until 1952. When I was a kid in the 1970s one of our elderly neighbors still had a team of mules on his farm. He had a Farmall Super H tractor but he would hitch up those mules to plow his garden every year. He also had an old horse drawn side delivery hayrake he would pull with them.

I love how the heat exchanger is basically just a steam boiler with fans exhausting the air. It really is quite funny to me but I suppose that it wasn't a bad way to do it when there were still people making boilers like that.

Just a trick of the camera shutter speed, it was turning. There's a video of a helicopter hovering in flight somewhere, but the blades look still due to the same phenomenon.

How common was these in the US? From what year was it more common to use tractors than horses in field work? I would assume around 1950+ here in Sweden.

These beheavemeths weren't made for speed they were meant for work and haul. You were supposed to share the load with family and friends and prepare to work four or five days doing each others farms and have a huge spread of food for everyone. The story goes. You don't work, starve. Only excuse was on your death bed. My family had been doing this kind of work for over a hundred years. These machines made the task of farming easier but the modern machines are lighter but traction. Uuuggghhhh! No comparison. LOVE, PEACE and SOUL💖👏👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
