| dcterms.description | In recent times, the tractor has become the most important piece of mechanical equipment on the farm in both industrialized nations and the developing countries. Although 35-50kW7 48-68hp tractors have emerged as the standard for soil tillage and transportation, most smallscale farming enterprises in the developing world cannot justify their use in terms of hours used. Now tractors of 26kW/ 35hp, similar to those in use in Europe some decades ago, have become popular in Third World countries. Small four-wheeled tractors for the Tropics and sub-Tropics whose preparation and publication CTA has helped to finance, analyzes the past and assesses the Future contributions of small and simpIe tractors towards rural and industrial development. The purpose of the book is to analyze the past and, as far as possible, assess future contribution of small and simple tractors towards rural and industrial development. The author investigates the importance of small tractors in the mechanization of agricultural production in developing countries according to the following areas: individual farms; rural crafts and trades, industry in both developing and industrialized countries; and public authorities at all levels m the agricultural and industrial sectors. The same author has published a companion volume in the form of a catalogue listing all smalltractor models available throughout the world.
