Farming Advances With New Machinery Trends
W M Hurst of the United States Bureau of Agricultural Engineering says farm machinery advances toward durability simplicity speed and convenience have transformed American agriculture as much as the reaper and steel plow once did. Gas tractors have existed for decades but only in the last 10 to 12 years has a unit suitable for row crops plowing disking and belt work become common with nearly half of 1937 general-purpose tractors on rubber and pneumatic tires enabling higher field speeds and road hauling with trailers. Adapting field machinery to tractors is the major recent development with plows redesigned for better materials beam clearance and mold board shapes to permit higher speed and added attachments for turning under cover crops.
