Walking tractors are a solution to Africa's farming challenges. I have decided to be a champion of change by manufacturing them right here in Africa. I believe that we will solve the challenges our small farmers are facing by getting rid of the hoe. Thanks for sharing this video.
Compared with South East Asia Africa has been very slow in taking up the single axle tractors. As a consequence African farms are the least mechanised in the world. National governments and donor agencies bear responsibility for promoting top down where rich farmers get subsidies tractors and implements whilst the majority are left with no option but to stay with the hoe and the panga.
Spot on. Farming in Africa is largely based on small-holder farmers, yet donors and government policies favor large scale farmers. Support to this critical sector is noticeably absent and until this is adequately addressed, mechanization and significant food production will remain a mirage in a continent which holds 65% of the world's total uncultivated arable land.
Looks like the dirt chunks are too rough soil must be like powder. For 1 pass only drive slower but increase till speed. Smaller machine usually must work slower. Aldo i would suggest a sulky seat that pivots and rides in the tractor tire area.
Bom dia falando de Moçambique,e como adiquirir este tipo de maquina?tenho muita terra para cultivar,mas com cabo curto nada é possível.quero vossa ajuda
Hello Panuka Farm, thank you for sharing your video. Can I ask for an update? How is maintenance and upkeep? What are some challenges you have encountered?
I have a power tiller of 13.500 hp but without variety of attachment most of the work cannot carried out. So, attachment must be supplied by the Comp. a lot.
