ABSTRACT:
An agricultural tractor comprises a front frame section, a rear frame section carrying the engine and cab and a horizontal beam connecting the front frame section to the rear frame section leaving a space between the front and rear wheels and underneath the beam for receiving the implement in a belly mount position. The rear frame section includes auxiliary wheels which are simple non steering wheels movable vertically and braced against rearward movement which can be lowered by a ram to a position to lift the front wheels away from the ground to a height to move over the implement. The front wheels are steerable by a worm and wheel arrangement to a position at right angles to the normal forward direction to allow manouverability. The tractor can be used for the various operations in growing row crops with the implement attached on a three point hitch rearwardly of the front frame section. Harvesting is carried out by a root crop harvester having a lifting part attached to the three point hitch and a cleaning and discharge part attached rearwardly of the tractor frame with a conveyor passing between the two between the rear wheels.
