    In this fourth MFA Special Edition using genuine archive films, we take a look at the impact Harry Ferguson's tractors and implements made to the mechanisation of the farm.
    We view new and efficient ways of dealing with the day to day labour intensive problems of keeping livestock by making use of existing equipment-- which usually included the TE20. We also focus on mechanised row crop thinning and in particular sugar beet. A film released in Australia all about the Fergie is highlighted and by all accounts the locals were mighty impressed.
    Hen's teeth are more common than film of the Ferguson Model A tractor - better known as the Ferguson-Brown! This home movie footage of it harvesting and ploughing demonstrated beautifully what life was like all those years ago.
    Farmers who farmed 'The Ferguson Way' expected top quality products with top quality service and that's exactly what they got. Another programme is based at Ferguson's factory at Banner Lane and includes a rousing call to economically produce high quality tractors.
    So with considerable help from the TE20, farming became much more efficient and that famous 'three point hitch and hydraulic system' is still fitted to most tractors today -- what an incredible legacy to the Mechanisation of the Farm.

    I learnt to drive on the little Fergie at the age of six one of the most interesting things which was not mentioned in. This was the starting mechanism. You could not start in gear because you had to use the gear lever to start it. I thought it was a great safety, innovation🚜👍

    I have a TEA 20 built in the 1954 to 1955 era. It still runs strong. My father worked for Ferguson from about 1946 to 1976 as chief quality control engineer. He met Mr. Ferguson several times. Little known fact: If Ferguson saw you with your hand(s) in your pocket(s) there was a 10 cent fine.

    Harry Ferguson was a genius! The 3 point hitch is the standard today!

    Fantastic achievement; three point linkage became the industry standard and still used today, brought affordable mechanisation to thousands of farms and heaps of them are still going today. Well done Harry.

    Do you have any film of the famous 9x9 in 9 furrows ploughing by a Fergie? Used to be a major selling point of the manouverability.
