Drawbar horsepower The
most basic c. itenon is how
much can it pull as measured
in hoisepowei at the drawbar
This is more important than
engine horsepowei because
the drawbar is the working
end of the tractor
Cost per drawbar horse
power This is the real way to
measure what you te getting
foi the money Just divide the
cost by the tested drawbar
horsepower and jou ve got
a figuie you can use to com

of tractors
Fuel consumption How
much work can the machine
squeeze out of a gallon of diesel
