Has anyone used a mini tractor less than 18 hp for ploughing the field?
I see dedicated small tractor companies vouching mini tractors do the job as well as the larger tractors, though slower and with smaller ploughs. Companies with a full range of tractors seem to position the small ones as intercultivation tractors so as not to eat into their larger tractor sales.
Please share your experience with a mini tractor especially for ploughing operation.
P.S.: I have read savera farms’ experience a few times, but they don’t seem to have used a plough.
Hi
Mahindra Yuvaraj with 15 hp is suitable for small holding agriculture activities similar to big tractors. Mahindra has got wide range of after sale service in HYD too. Even other companies also have small tractors, but need to ensure service after sales to purchase. Yuvaraj can run self driven mode too, see the photo of yuvraja mahindra.com/What-We-Do/Farm … cts/Yuvraj
The cost of tractors may be around 2 lakhs & more, cost may go high for additional attachments.

Thanks Swamy. I have looked at almost all the small tractors in the market now and drove some - every small tractor manufacturer confirms the small tractor can drive a smaller version of mould board plough, which is what I really want to confirm.
I would certainly need a plough every now and then - e.g., after harvesting of a maize crop.
Thank you Bhayya for your Posting,
Can you tell us the Price of this Mahindra Yuvaraj with 15 hp Tractor.
Shall we get any Subsidy for the same in Andhrapradesh.
What we knew is that there are only a few brands of mini-tractors which are eligible for subsidy in AP like Mistibitushi. There is 50% subsidy but need a group of farmers to apply (atleast 5) together and should go through the normal nuianses for subsidy with the govt. guys.
Let me know what you are looking for and I can ask a manufacturer of implements here. I picked up a 5 tine cultivator from him and he can build most implements as per the need/design.
Ok, I will ask.
You could also ask the Captain Tractors/Eicher dealer in your area as they seem to have the whole range of machinery/implements for their mini tractors.
Captain tractors is one of the leading mini tractor and implements mfg. in india.They have wide range of product in MINI TRACTOR Only,One things i like in captain tractors ,is lowest fuel consumption per hour and attractive price.another things i noticed is its a fully INDIGENOUS PRODUCT,so we can SAY its a MADE IN INDIA.
