So this is going to be a new feature here. A question will be randomly posted, no regular frequency, and to the first person with the correct answer a prize of some kind will be awarded. Could be equipment, cash for your farm or gift certificates/ discounts at the dealership. The only rule I'm putting on it is that you cannot win twice in a row.
Be sure to register your farm in your profile, as that can help me choose prizes to give away. Good luck!
What was the first tractor ever made and in what year?
The first one with the correct answer receives a $1,000 credit at the dealership.

The tractor actually was named, care to take another guess?

Close enough. They called it "The Froelich Tractor."

New trivia question for you all. Tyler, you'll have to sit this one out, no winning twice in a row.
The prize on this one will be one free attachment for either a skidsteer, front loader or telehandler, your choice.
In the year 1879, Anna Baldwin patented an early version of this common piece of farm equipment. What was the patent for?

Time for a tough one. If you can get this one without doing an internet search, then you are Einstein level in tractor knowledge. As such, I'm putting the prize at a year's worth of free service on any tractor you own, or a free lease of up to 3 months on any equipment in stock at the leasing office. Put on your thinking caps...
Prior to becoming Massey Ferguson, the Daniel A. Massey Manufacturing Co. merged originally in what year, with what company, and what was the name of said company after the merger?
Good Luck!
Remember, the last winner is ineligible to win, so Deere317, you'll have to sit this one out.

Massey-harris limited in 1891 The only part you're missing is what was the name of the company that Massey merged with? It's kind of a long one... Also, just out of curiosity, was that something you knew or did you look it up? |
