Which 4WD Tractor Is Right for Your Needs? Expert Comparison and Guide

If you are a farmer in India, you have probably thought to yourself, would a 4WD tractor help with my farming work and make things a little better and easier?  A 4WD (four-wheel drive) tractor essentially provides power to all four wheels of the tractor as opposed to two wheels in a normal two-wheel drive tractor making it more robust, and better suited on every kind of Indian farming land, including wet fields, hilly regions, etc. With farming always changing, there are now more farmers switching to these tractors to provide better traction, increased productivity, and an easier farming life. Indo Farm is proud to offer a range of high-performance capacity included within the category of specialized 4WD tractors. These tractors have been designed explicitly for the many soils and crops of our country. 

 

Why Choose a 4WD Tractor? 

  • More grip: 4WD tractors grab the ground more solidly, no matter whether you’re driving over soft soils, uneven patches or wet and slippery paddocks. 
  • Less work: Excellent for deep ploughing, pulling heavy implements and working with trolleys or trailers, especially in tough soil conditions. 
  • More fuel efficient: Less slippage means they burn less fuel across the board, including when performing difficult jobs, meaning you save money on your running costs. 
  • More productive: Getting tough jobs done quicker, and with less effort means you take care of your land better, and you can get more jobs done in the same amount of time. 
  • Better long-term investment: While they do cost more on purchase, the return in investment is substantial through larger yields and less breakdowns, so you will be doing good long term.

How to Select the Right Indo Farm 4WD Tractor for Your Needs 

Before making your choice, ask yourself: 

  • How big is your farm? If you have big fields, you may want to check out the 4190 because it has a higher HP rating; if your holding is smaller, an appropriate tractor would be the 3048 or 3035. 
  • Soil and Crops: Check if you have heavy or sticky land, or hilly terrain. 4WD tractors can gain traction in sugarcane, paddy, or orchards. 
  • Applications: If ploughing and puddling are your main applications, then higher ground clearance and hydraulic power options should be considered. If you are using your tractor primarily for transport, lift capacity and engine power should be the focus. 
  • Plan for Longevity: Don’t just consider the price of your tractor purchase; also consider the condition of the tractor, after sales service and distance to service agent in relation to when servicing is due. 
  • Try it Yourself: Visit your nearby Indo Farm dealer and try out some model types, then you can visit more than one dealer for a test drive and can also ask questions and get information about each type from experts who can advise you in relation to your farm.
