Apart from essential farming tasks, a tractor has many different usages in vegetable farms, fruit orchard farms, crop farms, and home gardening for lawn mowing purposes. Different kinds of implements are also attached with a farm tractor for maximizing efficiency and ease of operation such as loaders, discs, ploughs, and harrows for executing multiple tasks in an instant manner.

Trailer

How Tractors Assist In Dairy Farming

Dairy Farming is an exclusive category of farming that provides a complete cycle of producing, processing, and delivering dairy products especially milk. Milk is the largest dairy product retrieved from dairy farms by taking good care of animals. Other than milk, there are plenty of dairy products also produced such as cheese, butter, and curd. It requires a whole process of milk production and distribution to consumers. It has a background history dated back from 11,000 years ago where cattle were used to breed in a domestic home environment for a purpose of milk production.

The cows are fed with organic feed to enable them to give out a maximum amount of milk. Apart from cows, there are also some other animal species used for milking such as goats, sheep, and camels. There are many different ways of milking including hand milking, vacuum bucket milking, milking pipelines, milking parlors, and fully automatic robotic milking.

what is the uses of agricultural equipment?

Tractors and farm implements

Future Of Agriculture Farming

Future of Agriculture is on the steady rise with a bright future ahead to foresee many technological advancements with better ways of organic farming. In the modern era of the 21st century, the world is moving on towards smart agriculture farming methods.

Smart Agriculture is a new sustainable approach to help increase the cultivation of agriculture crops, adopting modern techniques to protect the soil from the drastic climate fluctuation, and finding safer ways to eliminate harmful greenhouse emissions by means of planting forest trees to have a healthy green farming environment around the world. The core reason is to produce enormous food supply to meet the growing demand of the ever-increasing population and to eradicate vicious poverty.

Food Security is becoming an alarming need for human beings in the world to find ways to produce more variety of freshly grown fruits and vegetables to feed for millions of people in the world. Precision Agriculture is the new face of concept-based agriculture farming which will provide a true blend of advanced innovative technologies to help observe,  measure, and respond to both inter and intra-field variability in crops. Its main goal is to provide a decision support system for the entire farm management by means of optimizing returns on inputs by proper utilization of resources.  It is a modern technique being employed to provide ease to farmers in keeping up all records of their farm by means of data collection and implementing technology for better managing field crops such as global positioning system (GPS) and geographic information system (GIS).

The variable rate of farming equipment also will be helpful in all kinds of seeding and spreading functions. Some of the other emerging technologies will be robots, drones technology, satellite remote sensing, and the internet of things (IOT).

Role Of Tractor And Implements In Farming

Role of Tractor and Implements will be much higher in future of agriculture as these are the core elements in the flourishing of agriculture farming. In the modern era of technology, there will be more advanced tractors introduced with the versatility of performance and extreme level of efficiency to provide simplicity in easily executing complex kinds of farming tasks.

There will be many different varieties of tractors such as compact utility tractors, raw crop tractors, industrial tractors, garden tractors, and earth moving tractors. The electric drive, Zero-emission, and driverless autonomous tractors are the new innovation in field farming tractors which will be going to provide an extreme level of ease to farmers by fulfilling all tasks in an efficient and effective manner.

The demand for implements will also increase in future as they will help supplement tractors for a variety of functions with less effort and time for farmers. There will be a huge list of many valuable implements like combine harvesters, mowers, seed drill, sprayers, harrows, mouldboard plough, disc plough, chisel plough, cultivators, backhoe machine, front end and back end loaders.

Tractors and Implements will always play an integral role in maintaining a better condition of soil with better crop cultivation. Tractors.PK is the reputed name in supplying superior quality branded farming tractors with attached implements for efficient task performance.

Al-Ghazi: Plowing ahead

A subsidiary of the Al-Futtaim group of Dubai, Al-Ghazi Tractors Limited is a manufacturer of New Holland tractors in technical co-operation with Case New Holland, the foremost manufacturer of agricultural tractors in the world. Being a household name amongst the farming community, AGTL has a widespread presence across Pakistan, with as many as 82 dealers and 3,000 mechanical workshops spread all over the country. Following the fiasco that was last year, AGTLs half-yearly records show that the company is on the much firmer ground this time around. While 2011 started out on a great note -with Al-Ghazi managing to post a record profit of Rs972.8 million during 1QFY11, which was incidentally the highest since its inception- the following quarters saw a crash in the market following the sudden imposition of a 16 percent sales tax on agricultural equipment.

In the months to follow, AGTL, along with other tractor manufacturers, witnessed tractor sales plummet dangerously and had to suffer long stretches of the plant closure. Fast forward nearly a year, and the second quarter ended sales of nearly Rs4.6 billion- jumping 29 percent from the same period last year – are a testament to the fact that the company is back on track following its previous trajectory of success. Whereas a comparison with sales figures from the same period last year reveals unnaturally flattering growth statistics due to the low-base effect, a comparison of sales against the same period in 2010 reveals a healthy increase of 4 percent during the 2QFY12. However, a similar comparison between FY11 and FY12 at half-year draws negatives for 2012, mainly because of the exceptional first quarter that AGTL had in FY11 which saw them selling 8,602 tractors as compared to 6,004 that were delivered during the first quarter of FY12. Following the company’s initiative to engage pro-actively with farmers and introduce a newer version of agricultural implements, sales have gone up to Rs 7.9 billion at the half year-mark and the pent-up demand from last year means that they are likely to go up higher in the coming quarters.

With profit after taxation going up to Rs596 million versus Rs510 million that was recorded during the second quarter, earnings have climbed up to Rs13.88 per share as compared to an EPS of Rs 11.89 per share recorded at the close of 2QFY11. Looking forward, production and demand for the locally manufactured agricultural implements are likely to remain strong. During the first quarter, AGTL recorded bookings for 9,234 tractors, out of which it could produce only 4,350 units. Similarly, the Sindh government has also announced the launch of the 3rd leg of its rural incentive scheme which will see the distribution of 6,000 tractors among farmers at a subsidized rate. Subsequently, the backlog of orders and demand glut for tractors is therefore likely to keep the industry steady on its feet and AGTL thriving in the coming months.
