Agco took the occasion of this year’s National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, Kentucky to roll out its new Massey Ferguson compact tractor lineup.

The new 1M Series 25, and its 35 and 40 higher-horsepower brethren, are to be marketed to people who may just be getting into farming.

“We think this is a growing segment of the market,” says Kevin Lewallen, tactical marketing manager of compact and utility tractors for Massey Ferguson. “You have more and more people that are interested in getting their feet wet in the ag industry and they start with either a sub-compact or compact tractor.”

So what do these tiny but mighty compact tractors have to offer?
