2009, hardback, 176 pages

This book by Brian Bell traces the development of tractors, tillage equipment, drills and crop sprayers from the days when Fordson Model N tractors were used to pull ploughs and cup-feed drills.  The progression from those early machines to the latest computerised tractor management systems has happened in little more than a single lifetime.

Brian Bell includes information on the development of the farm tractor from the Fordson Model F to the JCB Fastrac, trailed and mounted conventional and reversible ploughs, cultivators, drills, vegetable planters, spreaders, loaders, fertiliser distributors and crop sprayers.
