Walking tractors were very common in rural areas in the past, but why are they rarely seen now?

Friends who live in rural areas may have seen this phenomenon. Every time when farming is busy, farmers will pull tractors to work in the fields. This kind of tractor is also a rare walking tractor nowadays. This kind of tractor can help farmers save a lot of time and physical strength. He does not need to pick heavy objects to go to the field by himself, but through transportation. Maybe many people have never seen it, because there are very few now. It cannot be said to be eliminated, but society is progressing and we no longer need this thing. Why is it so rare now? Let me tell you the reasons for this.

The first reason is that there are very few people farming now. Even if they farm, there are not as many as before. Many farmer friends feel that they can make more money working outside than farming, so they choose to work outside instead of farming at home. Then you won’t see them farming, and there will be fewer walking tractors. The second reason is that transportation is now very convenient. Many farmers have land next to the road, and they may choose some household tricycles to transport agricultural products. We all know that in that society at that time, people whose families owned walking tractors were considered relatively wealthy. The main reason is that there are too few people farming now.

We can also see such a phenomenon. Cows are rarely seen in rural areas. It is precisely because there are few people farming that even if you do, you will choose to use iron pears. This saves trouble and effort. In our time, during busy farming time, there were rows of tractors and cows on the road. Nowadays, the walk-behind tractor may be an antique.

As technology advances, so do our ideas. Even if someone is farming at home, they will choose an easier mode of transportation. Maybe an agricultural tricycle will replace the walking tractor. If your home is in better condition, you may have a minivan, which is really convenient. So why do you think we rarely see walking tractors nowadays? Come and tell me what you think.
