There is only so much market. And as I see it, that market is divided into 3 different categories, with slight overlap. Large row crop/cereal crop farmers in the west have little need for a tractor less than 200 hp these days, unless it’s a yard tractor than maybe a 150hp tractor could fit in. The midsize tractor market is the livestock farmer, a 200hp tractor to do some tillage, pull manure tanker or run forage harvester, but most will want a 100-150 hp 4wd tractor for making and feeding forage. Smaller tractors just can’t handle the heavy loads of hay and handle big TMR mixers. The smaller jobs on livestock farms are now filled by telahandlers and skid steers. Which leaves the 100hp and less firmly in the group of part time hobby farms. This group has generally got the cash to buy new equipment from $$ erased from of farm jobs.

It would not surprise me if the blue tractors started to come only in the 100hp and less models and the red in over 100hp size group.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
