/kloc-around 0/986, I remembered that a man in the village bought his first tractor. I can't remember how many. It is very small, not an eight-horsepower walking tractor. Because, later, my family bought an eight horsepower tractor. I've played with this thing before, and I know all its uses. Today, I'm going to talk about the reasons why walking tractors are disappearing.

Although the walking tractor is slow, it is more labor-saving to pull crops in the mud under heavy load, which is incomparable to tricycles and ordinary cars. It is very suitable for the original agricultural production, and can be said to be a direct substitute for cattle. Moreover, the efficiency of cultivated land is much higher than that of raising cattle. Plowing four or five acres of land a day is not a problem, but the operators are tired enough. Another advantage of it is that it can be used as a general-purpose power pumping power generation to assist agricultural production. In the initial era, it was an essential agricultural "artifact" for every household in our local area. However, on the highway, its steering and shifting are a little behind the times now, and it is necessary to master the reverse steering operation flexibly when turning downhill, which is contrary to the steering operation on Heping Road. For this reason, people who are not familiar with the operation have some accidents.

Later, with the arrival of working age, many young and strong people went out to work to make money, and many tractors stayed there. At this time, agricultural mechanization such as large combine harvester and rotary tiller has been widely popularized in our local area. Some people earn money by plowing, sowing and harvesting crops for others, which is equivalent to replacing the role of tractors in plowing. At first, as a general auxiliary power machine, the function of pumping irrigation land was replaced by deep well irrigation built locally; Moreover, some portable cargo carrying functions have been replaced by tricycles; Instead of walking, the function is replaced by an electric car or a car. Besides, there are very few young people living in the village now, and generally no one runs it anymore.

For all these reasons, the walking tractor "hero" is useless, that is, it is outdated and replaced by more modern and automated agricultural machinery. Of course, the diesel engine, the power machine of walking tractor, has been playing a role, but it has changed a form to serve our farmers.
