HI

There are a lot of companies that manufacture the mini tractors, you can check with them about there usage. Regarding subsidy, you need to contact the agriculture department.

First of all you have to be very clear with the purpose for which you want to use tractor or tiller?
what is the size of holding and the crop etc.?

then it will be easy to decide what is best.

Tractor Vs Power tiller

Currently i hold 10acres of banana plantation (20days of age), i am also looking to buy few more acres to establish a dairy and possibly palm. I just want a machine for weed killing, ploughing, and bit carrying when required.

I called on Kubota dealer, they said 24hp model is about 5lacs with 50% subsidy, ie 2.5lacs, it is expensive. I also called Shrachi and VST tiiller dealers, they have 13HP - 15HP tillers costing about 1.3lacs.


The main advantage of mini tractor is its seating in comparing to tiller (i believe), so please put your thoughts.

Thanks,
Satish

5 lac for 24 HP mini tractor ! Is he kidding? You get a John Deere 50 HP tractor for 5.8 lac.

Regarding your requirement, It depends on how much area you have between your banana plants. If its able to fit a mini tractor then definitely without doubt go for it. I would stay away from a tiller as its a labor intensive thing to be handling it.

Don`t you think a used mini tractor will serve your purpose much better than a new one since your work load is not high. You will save investment and also be able to get the work done.

Many thanks for your's concrete suggestion. The distance between two banana plants is about 6ft, so mini tractor could easily fit. I would be happy to buy a second hand mini tractor, however, it is not easy to find one in my area as i never seen one before.

the tractor width is 3.50 feet and it is very much useful for inter-crop cultivation transportation and you can use this many more attachments and this tractor comes with 4 wheel drive and one time investment.

Hello,
As you have 10 Acres of land to cultivate, you may need two separate machines.

You may want to buy a tractor for major work. I would go for Mahendra 575 or John Deere. Mahendra has proven record in India and widely used in Tamil nadu. I do not know about other one much.

For weed removal kind of appliation, you may want to take small one that has option to fit may fittings.

Buy the one that has very good service and has the record of less problems and less fuel consumption.. I vote for Mahendra 575.

Thank you.
with regards
Siva
