The current situation and development trend of walking tractors

05/06/2023

A walking tractor is a small tractor. Europe and the United States are called garden tractors. It is a multi-purpose walking machine mainly used for traction and transportation, which is composed of engine, chassis, electrical and other systems. The driving ability of the walking tractor depends on the power of the internal combustion engine through the transmission system. The driving wheel that obtains the driving torque then gives the ground a small, backward horizontal force (tangential force) through the tire pattern and the tire surface. This reaction force is to push the tractor forward. The driving force of driving (also known as feeding propulsion). The structure is simple, the power is small, and it is suitable for small cultivated land. The driver holds the armrest to control the operating mechanism, tow or drive the supporting agricultural implements for operation.

The walking tractor industry is an important part of China's agricultural machinery industry and plays a key role in the mechanization level and efficiency of agricultural production. Today, the MANHOPE editor will take you to learn about it!

1. Market size and demand: China's walking tractor market is huge, and its sales volume ranks among the top in the world. With the advancement of agricultural modernization and the improvement of farmers' income, the demand for walk-behind tractors has grown steadily. Especially in small farmlands and mountainous areas, walking tractors have the advantages of flexibility and adaptability, and are favored by farmers.

2. Technology upgrade and product innovation: With the progress of science and technology, the walking tractor industry is also constantly upgrading technology and product innovation. Traditional diesel walking tractors still dominate, but new products such as electric walking tractors and hybrid walking tractors are gradually emerging. These new products have the advantages of environmental protection, energy saving and convenient operation, and meet the requirements of sustainable agricultural development.

3. Increased industrial concentration: The walking tractor industry is gradually developing towards scale and intensification. Large-scale agricultural machinery enterprises are gradually growing in the market competition, have stronger R&D and production capabilities, and also have more brand influence. At the same time, a group of professional and regional small and medium-sized enterprises have emerged in the walking tractor industry, providing diversified products and services.

4. Intensified competition in the international market: The competition in China's walking tractor industry not only comes from the domestic market, but also from the international market. China's walking tractors have competitive advantages in technology, performance and price, and have gradually opened up the international market. However, foreign walking tractor brands are also fiercely competing in the Chinese market, prompting domestic companies to increase technological innovation and brand building.

5. Construction of agricultural machinery service system: With the advancement of agricultural mechanization, the construction of agricultural machinery service system has also become the focus of the development of the walking tractor industry. The government has increased support for the construction and training of agricultural machinery service stations, and promoted the improvement of agricultural machinery maintenance and technical service capabilities to meet farmers' needs for technical support and after-sales service.

With the continuous advancement of agricultural modernization and the increase of farmers' demand for agricultural machinery, the walking tractor industry is expected to continue to maintain stable growth and develop in the direction of intelligence, energy conservation, environmental protection and high efficiency.
