History of Indian tractor industry 1945 to 1960.
War surplus tractors and bulldozers were imported for land reclamation and cultivation in mid 1940's.
In 1947 Central and State Tractor Organizations were set up to develop and promote the supply and use of tractors in agriculture and up to 1960, the demand was met entirely through imports.
There were 8,500 tractors in use in 1951, 20,000 in 1955 and 37,000 by 1960.
History (contd…)
1961 to 1970.Local production began in 1961 with five
manufacturers producing a total of 880 units per year. Eicher, Gujarat Tractors, TAFE, Escorts, M&M.
By 1965 this had increased to over 5000 units per year and the total in use had risen to over 52000.
By 1970 annual production had exceeded 20000 units with over 146000 units working in the country.
History (contd…) 1971 to 1980.
Six new manufacturers were established during this period although three companies (Kirloskar Tractors, Harsha Tractors and Pittie Tractors) did not survive.
Escorts Ltd began local manufacture of Ford tractors in 1971 in collaboration with Ford, UK.
Others were HMT and PTL (SWARAJ) Total production climbed steadily to 33000 in 1975 reaching 71000
by 1980. Credit facilities for farmers continued to improve and the tractor
market expanded rapidly with the total in use passing the half million mark by 1980.
History (contd…) 1981 to 1990.
A further five (Auto Tractors, Haryana Tractors, United Auto Tractors, Asian Tractors, VST Tillers) manufacturers began production during this period but only last one survived in the increasingly competitive market place.
Annual production exceeded 75000 units by 1985 and reached 140000 in 1990 when the total in use was about 1.2 million.
Then India - a net importer up to the mid-seventies - became an exporter in the 80's mainly to countries in Africa.
History (contd…)
1991 to 1997.Since 1992 it has not been necessary to obtain an
industrial license for tractor manufacture in India. By 1997 annual production exceeded 255000 units and
the national tractor park had passed the two million mark.
India has now emerged as one of the world leaders in wheeled tractor production.
History (contd…) 1997 to ...
Seven new manufacturers have started production since 1997. Bajaj Tempo New Holland John Deere (initially with L&T) Same Deutz-Fahr (initially with Greaves) Sonalika Standard Indo Farm
Negative growth phase After sustaining a robust 14 per cent growth
rate in 1994-98, the tractor industry's growth for the next two-three years had to come down as a natural process of alignment to the long-term growth of 8 per cent.
Over-production Billing Drought in 2001 and 2002 Piling of government stock of food grains upto
75 MT
Current situation Intense competition has led to rapid advances in design
and quality Saturation achieved in Punjab with tractor density as high
as 82 per 1000 ha against Indian average of 12.4, world average of 17.4 and 32.1 in developed countries.
But average HP per hectare is only 0.4 in India as against 2.6 in developed countries and 1.4 in world.
This give average HP per tractor of only 32.26 in India where as, developed countries and world HP per tractor is 81.
8 Dimensions of Quality8 Dimensions of QualityPerformance - primary operating characteristics

Future prospects India has currently 168 million hectares of cultivable land
which is second largest in the world. Current tractor population base in India is 2.4 million
tractors. 50 per cent of India's arable area, that is, more than 80
million hectares is covered by 10 million holdings. Even if half these holdings own tractors, it would push the total tractor population above five-million.
Driving factors De-fragmentation and nuclear families Irrigation facilities Improvement in standard of living Cheap credit Rise in MSP (Minimum Support Price) Other income – poultry, dairy, livestock, infrastructure
projects Improved features and quality of products Economic growth
Construction Equipment – The New Frontier
Medium sized CE machinery demand has shot up due to various infrastructure projects in progress
Tractor manufacturers are providing CE attachments and are giving tough competition to established players like JCB, TATA, CAT and L&T
Export scene Exports grew by 41% from 19894 in F05 to 28118 in F06
Africa – Libya, Algeria and South Africa offer sophisticated market while other African countries employ government tender system
North America – Demand of 50 HP tractors for secondary operations in the US has made it the largest emerging market for Indian tractor exports. Because of large cost-advantage from current local volumes, and improved manufacturing and product technology, Indian companies can aim and achieve a significant share in this segment of the US market. This is assuming they meet expectations on quality/feature/delivery fronts and provide top line after-sales-service.

Export scene (contd…) European Union – Turkey and Eastern Europe offer a
growth opportunity whereas other markets are stagnant
Other major destinations for Indian tractors are the Middle East, SAARC and South East Asian countries.
Challenges ahead Fuel shortage Conformance to European norms on
Safety and ergonomics Noise Emission Electronics
Bottlenecks in form of testing and certification facilities in India
Competition from low cost Chinese products Enhancement of farm machinery technology
Alternate fuelsTractor manufacturers are reducing fuel consumption of their models as well as are working with alternate fuels to meet the challenge posed by global fuel price hike
•Fuel efficiency improvement project
•LPG / CNG operated tractor
•Bio-diesel as additive to diesel
•Diesel + Electric = Hybrid power
•Hydrogen
Safety and Ergonomics
India being a signatory to the WTO, Indian tractor manufacturers have to adhere to global regulations
EmissionTractor industry successfully achieved the emission requirement of EURO Stage II w.e.f. 1-10-2005.
Next target is EURO Stage IIIA w.e.f. 1-4-2010. This will require advanced technologies like, Rotary pump, Turbocharger, Intercooler, Exhaust gas re-circulation, Common rail injection.
