The worlds most popular tractor brand (Mahindra) doesn't even crack the top 5 in the US.
replyIf American farmers wan't the most repairable tractor, they should just buy the one that is used in poorer, less-connected regions of the world. Those are built for durability and repairability.
Mahindra's line up tops out at 71 horsepower. Americans use 400-800 horsepower row croppers towing 36 row planters.
replySome farm, typically agriculture. Your average cattle, sheep, or other livestock farmer will not be running a 400+ HP tractor in most cases. 50-110 hp is common for general property use such as clearing, slashing, loading, material moving. In these cases a Mahondra, or any number of others is ideal. You can get John Deere in the same size, but would be mad to do so with the repairability issues and higher cost.
reply> Your average cattle, sheep, or other livestock farmer
replyis a very different person in different countries. The US has large scale agriculture and use large scale equipment.
Those large scale farms aren't the ones who have a problem with John Deere or repairability. Corporate will handle that.
replyThe most popular tractor on American farms right now is the John Deere 5075E, which has between 73 and 75HP.
replySo you're wrong.
