The development of the tractor!

The development of the tractor began in the 19th century with steam-powered machines. The first successful petrol-powered tractors were invented by John Froelich in 1892, followed by commercially successful models such as the Ivel Agricultural Motor (1901) and Henry Ford's Fordson (1917), which ushered in mass production.

In the 1920s, the diesel engine became popular, for example with the Lanz Bulldog (1921). After the Second World War, hydraulic lifting systems revolutionized tractors, while brands such as John Deere and Massey Ferguson became leaders.

Modern tractors are equipped with GPS technology, automatic steering and telemetry systems to maximize agricultural efficiency.


Tractor, tractor, towing machine or hauler?

Depending on the region and area of use, the tractor is also referred to as a hauler, tractor, towing machine or farm tractor. These terms have developed historically from the different functions and regional dialects. While "tractor" is derived from the Latin "tractare" (to pull), "Schlepper" emphasizes the pulling power of the machine, especially in agriculture. "Trecker" is a colloquial term that is particularly common in northern Germany. The term "tractor" is often used in technical contexts, for example for transportation tasks. This variety reflects the long tradition and wide range of possible uses of tractors.
