TRACTOR IN AGRICULTURE - A HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF DEVELOPMENT WITH A VIEW TO THE FUTURE

Poljoprivredni traktor je vozilo namijenjeno obavljanju poslova po cestama i poljima, sposobno za nošenje, upravljanje, vuču i pogon oruđa – priključaka ili pokretnih i nepokretnih strojeva i vuču prikolica. Poljoprivredni traktor također možemo definirati kao motorno vozilo koje razvija snagu na poteznici i priključnom vratilu. Noviji trend razvoja poljoprivrednih traktora karakterizira porast uloge informacijske tehnologije povezane s unaprijeđenim konceptom prijenosnika snage visoko sofisticiranom i stalno poboljšavanom razinom udobnosti rukovatelju. Umjetna inteligencija podiže poljoprivredu na novu razinu sofisticiranosti.. GPS unutar traktora korak je prema kontrolama bez vozača. Voćarski i vinogradarski traktori specijalizirani su tip traktora prilagođeni karakteristikama kako bi bolje odgovarale uporabi u ovim područjima, a neki od prvih bili su mali traktori gusjeničari. Oni su često imali čudan rad na karoseriji kako bi obavili radne dijelove sveobuhvatnim dijelovima od kositra ili su bili suženi strojevi kako bi stali između redova vinove loze ili voćaka. Cilj ovog rada je opisati povijesni razvoj traktora pa sve do budućih tehnologija koje se očekuju u njihovog razvoja.An agricultural tractor is a vehicle intended for performing work on roads and fields, capable of carrying, operating, towing and driving tools - attachments or mobile and stationary machines and towing trailers. An agricultural tractor can also be defined as a motor vehicle that develops power on the drawbar and the PTO shaft. A recent trend in the development of agricultural tractors is characterized by the growing role of information technology associated with the advanced powertrain concept with a highly sophisticated and constantly improved level of operator comfort. Artificial intelligence raises agriculture to a new level of sophistication. GPS inside the tractor is a step towards driverless controls.. Fruit and vineyard tractors are a specialized type of tractor adapted to the characteristics to better suit use in these areas, and some of the first were small crawler tractors. These tractors often had strange work on the bodywork to do the working parts with all-encompassing tin parts, or they were tapered machines to stand between rows of vines or fruit trees. The aim of this paper is to describe the development of fruit and vineyard tractors from their inception to today's new technologie
