"The first powered farm implements in the early 1800s were portable engines - steam engines on
wheels that could be used to drive mechanical farm machinery by way of a flexible belt. Around 1850, the first traction engines were
developed from these, and were widely adopted for agricultural use. Where soil conditions permitted, like the US, steam tractors
were used to direct-haul ploughs, but in the UK and elsewhere, ploughing engines were used for cable-hauled ploughing instead.
Steam-powered agricultural engines remained in use well into the 20th century, until reliable internal combustion engines had been
developed.
In 1892, John Froelich built the first practical gasoline-powered tractor in Clayton County, Iowa. Only two were sold, and it was not
until 1911, when the Twin City Traction Engine Company developed the design, that it became successful.
In Britain, the first recorded tractor sale was the oil-burning Hornsby-Ackroyd Patent Safety Oil Traction engine, in 1897. However,
the first commercially successful design was Dan Albone's three-wheel Ivel tractor of 1902. In 1908, Saundersons of Bedford
introduced a four-wheel design, and went on to become the largest tractor manufacturer outside the USA.
A 1920 International Harvester tractor, showing features inherited from earlier steam tractor designs.While unpopular at first, these
gasoline-powered machines began to catch on in the 1910s when they became smaller and more affordable. Henry Ford introduced
the Fordson, the first mass-produced tractor in 1917. They were
built in the U.S., Ireland, England and Russia and by 1923, Fordson had 77% of the U.S. market. The Fordson dispensed with a
frame, using the strength of the engine block to hold the machine together. By the 1920s, tractors with a gasoline-powered
internal combustion engine had become the norm.
The classic farm tractor is a simple open vehicle, with two very large driving wheels on an axle below and slightly behind a single
seat (the seat and steering wheel consequently are in the center), and the engine in front of the driver, with two steerable wheels
below the engine compartment. This basic design has remained unchanged for a number of years, but enclosed cabs are fitted on
almost all modern models, for reasons of operator safety and comfort.
Originally, plows and other equipment were connected via a draw-bar, or a proprietary connecting system; prior to Harry Ferguson
patenting the three-point hitch. Recently, Bobcat's patent on its front loader connection has expired; and compact tractors are now
being outfitted with quick-connect attachments for their front-end loaders.
There are also lawn tractors. Cub Cadet, Husqvarna, John Deere, Massey Ferguson and Toro are some of the better-known brands.
