Big Tractor Power is out in the field with tandem tractors. In the 1940's. 1950.s and 1960's big tractors on the farm were 30-50 hp. In this era of farming moldboard plowing was the primary tillage method and required lots of horse power. One tractor typically would pull a 2 or 3 bottom plow. Farmers looking to cover their acres faster sometimes would team there tractors together to jump from 30-50 hp to 60 to 100 hp. This pairing allowed the tractors to pull a 4 or 5 bottom plow to complete tillage work quicker. With the development of articulated 4wd tractors the need for tandem tractors went away in the late 1960's. Tandem tractors to watch for in this video: 1. John Deere 830 Specail 2.
