Tractor Operation and Maintenance

The 4-H Tractor program provides members an opportunity to "learn by doing". Members will learn that better tractor care results in longer tractor life, more power, and lower operating costs. While members are learning how to care for their tractors they will also learn how to be a safe operator. This project will help participants form good safety habits so they can think and act safely at all times.
