A surprising number of the big  four-wheel drive tractors that were designed for the North American  prairies found their way into Britain during the 1970s and 80s. Their  impressive work-rates revolutionised arable operations on larger  farming units. Today many of these big wheelers, including both  articulated and crab-steer machines, still have a place on Britain's  farms.

This video shows a wide range of  machines in action from some of the earliest Doe tractors to more  modern giants from both the USA and Russia. We also see the latest  flagship models from today's leading manufacturers at work. Tractors  filmed include not just the well-known names, such as Steiger,  Versatile, John Deere, Case, Massey Ferguson and Ford, but also  lesser known makes like Matbro, Cameco, Belarus and White.

Stuart Gibbard's informative script  gives details of the main features of the models and explains the  impact they had on British agriculture.
