Abstract
The amount of pull a tractor develops depends largely on tyre efficiency and so with so many tyre size options for the one tractor model it is very easy to make the wrong decision on tyre fitment.
Tyre efficiency varies with tractor weight, soil conditions, inflation pressure and tyre size.
Hers we look at some of these factors and how changing them may affect efficiency.
