Tractors

Introduction

The move from horse to tractor power on Canadian farms had a profound impact on the farmer and the farm. The transformation was gradual and the outcome was far from a foregone conclusion. The tractors from the Canada Agriculture Museum’s collection profiled here outline the development of this agricultural technology and illustrate the changes and refinements that took place along the way.
