The Farmtracs were originally built by Long AgriBusiness in India, they were copies of Ford 4600s...Long Bought the tooling of the obsolete models from New Holland then CNH similar to what Kioti used to do with Kubota. A few years ago Long hooked up with LS of Korea and began marketing LS compact tractors as Long Landtracs...Korean build/design with Mitsubishi engines. Both Landtracs and Farmtracs were darn good heavily built tractors that just lacked some of the more modern technology and for the most part utilized small flyby night used tractor jockies for their dealerships. The lack of quality dealer and service support hindered the sales. A couple years ago there was either a buy out or takeover of Long by another Indian Company...the miled every last penny out of the company then split...leaving owbers and dealers up the proverbial creek sans paddle...no more LongAgriBusiness. Eventually LS took back the compact line, and it appears now they aquired the Farmtrac line. I f LS stays true to form, they will be a tad technologically challenged, but very well built. I would say it depends on your dealer: is he set up to support the tractors for parts and service? Does he have factory trained techs?
