Abstract
ABSTRACT MAXIMUM tractive efficiency usually occurs at a gross traction ratio of 0.4 to 0.5. On concrete this point is attainable at high forward speeds not suitable for most field operations. Various combinations of forward speed and drive wheel load can be used. A compromise exists in field operations between speed and ballast for maximum tractive efficiency, highest field capacity or productivity and minimum capital costs. A load to power ratio of approximately 60 kg/kW for two wheel drive tractors operating at wheel speeds in the range of 8 to 12 km/h results in optimum tractive efficiency and optimum performance.
