Compact tractors are designed to tackle a variety of jobs, both in a professional and residential setting. Whether you are looking to tackle small projects around the farm or overhaul your residential yard, there are models and attachments to help you do it all. 

Let’s take a closer look at the uses of compact tractors, models, and attachments for these vehicles.  

History of Used Compact Tractors

As the tractor business began bustling, John Deere entered the industry in 1918 and has been working to offer their customers top of the line equipment ever since. Here’s a look back at a timeline of some of the most well-known tractor models that have contributed to this industry.

To meet the demands of customers who have been on the hunt for a machine that packs a punch without wasting fuel, John Deere has rolled out the new 200G Excavator. This piece of equipment is designed for tough jobs, and it can potentially lower overall operating costs. When combined with Deere’s bucket portfolio, coupler options and attachments, and accelerated swing speed, the 200G can tackle a wide range of tasks at the job site.

Carolina Site Logistics, a mechanical, residential, and commercial contractor, knows it takes a wide array of machinery to tackle everyday jobs. This is why it has left the door open to potentially add more to its fleet, even though it is already running approximately 40 pieces of equipment at the moment.

Rich Jeffers, vice president of Carolina Site Logistics, notes that the company’s partnership with its John Deere dealer has helped it pull through some difficult challenges.

Whether you’re texturizing pavement or leveling uneven ground, there is a John Deere cold planer attachment for you. The company recently expanded its lineup of offerings, rolling out the CP18E, CP24E, and CP30E to cater to a wide range of customers with varying needs. All of these cold planers are compatible with John Deere skid steers and compact track loaders for the ultimate convenience.

“The E-Series cold planers are new solutions for our customers seeking more efficiency on the job by enabling all cold planer functions to be controlled from within the machine’s cab,” says Jessica Hill, program manager, global attachments at John Deere. “The attachments deliver value to our customers through increased productivity and uptime, while maintaining low daily operating costs.”

John Deere has always been a leader within the agricultural industry, with tractors being one of its specialties. This is in part due to Deere’s acquisition of the Waterloo Gasoline Engine Company back in 1918, which helped lay the groundwork for the development of its first all-wheel-drive tractor model. However, the tractor was still an advanced concept when Deere initially acquired Waterloo, meaning there would be a learning curve that the company needed to surpass in order to succeed.

As the end of summer nears, farmers across the country are getting ready for their annual harvest, specifically in regard to corn and soybeans. While this time of year can be exciting, it also brings about a seemingly endless to-do list that can be thrown off by even the smallest bump in the road. Despite potential hiccups or less than ideal weather conditions, though, it is important that farmers remain vigilant in their goal of achieving a successful harvest season. 

To get the most out of this season, while also laying the groundwork for the next crop season, farmers should take certain factors into consideration.
