Harry Ferguson basically invented the modern-day farm tractor with, three point linkage with draft control and making the tractor and implement a single unit controlled by a single leaver from the tractor seat. The Ferguson system was demonstrated by Harry Ferguson to Henry Ford at Dearborn in the late 30s on the Ferguson type A tractor, which was built by the David Brown tractor company. The famous "Handshake agreement" was made between Mr Ferguson and Mr Ford to manufacture a tractor. The result of which, The Ford 2N and 9N were born. They are commonly known in Britain as the Ford-Fergy to this day.
@@kajjensen1630Massey Harris was the brand now known as Massey Ferguson. In late 1950s Harry Ferguson sold his brand to Massey Harris which led to Massey-Harris-Ferguson. It was shortened to Massey Ferguson in 1958.
Apparently he didn’t know about that being he thinks the naa golden jubilee was the first to incorporate the 3 point hitch with the fergison system. The 9n was the first with the 3 point hitch.
@frederickjeremy The Ferguson type A was the first tractor to incorporate three point linkage, known as the Fergy Brown. The prototype is "The Black Tractor" which can be seen in the Science museum in London.
seems as if someone wanted to do a history of something, they should at least research the subject and have the narrative and pictures in synch with each other.
Absolutely! They show early pics and footage at the end, skip critical info and are in general all over the board in terms of time representation. Often out of order completely
The info about 80s and 90s is completely wrong. Ford bought New Holland in 1986 and combined it with Ford tractor operations forming Ford New Holland. In 1991 Ford sold Ford New Holland to Fiat. It was combined with Fiat’s tractor business and the name was shortened to just New Holland. In 1999 New Holland merged with Case and CNH was formed.
It, the Ferguson tractor and 3 point linkage all began in Yorkshire, England after an agreement between David Brown and Harry Ferguson to produce the very first fergy, the Ferguson Brown. And the rest is history !!
3 point linkage harry Ferguson in fact Ferguson sued Ford over infringement`s of patents when they fell out , in fact my ford 3000 hydrulics 1967 , was not a patch on my same vintage MF 135
@@316jd140 it's an incremental improvement, just like my 600 was an improvement over the NAA. But don't you see what I'm talking about with this video not getting basic concepts that any farmer familiar with fords understands? The video suggests that the NAA was a major revolution in tractors and just glosses over the 9N and 8N. The only features my 600 has over an 8N is live hydraulics and the low range transmission coming stock. It weighs a little more and the ohv engine gives it 4 more horsepower. The video missed, among countless other things, that the NAA was an evolution to keep up with Massey Ferguson while the 9N was the revolution invented by Ferguson, which they don't even mention
I gave up on this video at the 4 minute mark. You could have found more accurate, relevant information just using Wikipedia. Ford started his own tractor company in 1918 because the Board of Directors wouldn't fund the project. Ford had already invested ten years of development into farm tractors before ever founding Fordson. Ford quickly became the highest volume producer of tractors in the world following his theories of high volume mass production and low priced product. Unfortunately, Ford lost money on every tractor during the 1920's as he priced them with too little margin for profit. The 9N of 1939 was a radical departure from tractor manufacturing because of the Ferguson three point hitch. This truly was the tractor that allowed even the smallest farmer to move away from using horses and be far more productive. At about 20 draw bar horsepower, it was about half as powerful as most other small tractors but performed more work because of the design of the hitch and implements. This was a great advantage to Ford in the tractor market until the middle to late 1950's when the horsepower race took off in the farm tractor world. The great advantage of the 1920's era Ford tractors was that you could maintain them yourself with the same knowledge and skills you had learned to maintain your Ford car. You had a great subject to work with here. A shame you wasted the ban width with what you produced.
Friend of mine had a new one a y reg, they put a turbo on it, had the ford q cab, unlike the q cab 10 series fords it had floor change constant mesh gear box, and electric dual power, a carraro axle very similar to the David browns of the time, not many about. Some day about 20 built
Ford bought New Holland and together they developed the Genisis tractors in the 80's, that's when Fiat took notice and eventually purchased the Ford/New Holland line of equipment.
Fordson tractor company was a completely different company from Ford, It was named Fordson due to another businessman taking the name "Ford Tractor co" But it was complete different enitiy and company from Ford. As the directors of Ford Motor co. Did'nt want Henry Ford to build a Tractor. They were not innovative. as Farmall and John Deer gained market share. Henry Ford did not want to change or upgrade its Tractor. and thus they lost Market share in America and International and John Deer cornered the market in America.

NAA was a great improvement over 8n. More power, maneuverability, hydraulics, etc. We had 4 NAA’s, and loved them!

Did they really show a case and a cabless ford to talk about the new cab and new ford model in the same sentence
They did.
All by themselves, the visuals here are enjoyable, but this one of the most annoying and comically inaccurate videos I've ever seen on RUclips.
Where would
ford tractors be without Harry Ferguson?
Is this video AI generated? Filled with errors. For instance the NAA is minor modification of the 8N. Really a footnote in their history.
3 point linkage harry Ferguson in fact Ferguson sued Ford over infringement`s of patents when they fell out , in fact my ford 3000 hydrulics 1967 , was not a patch on my same

Not true, the NAA was a major update on the 8N, new overhead, more powerful engine, live hydraulics, option of live PTO, improved hydraulics, etc.
Correct! NAA(Jubilee) was a huge improvement over the8N! I know, we had 4 NAAs.

@@robertsmith9810 I agree with you, it's a major update....but not the definitive Ford tractor that the video suggests the NAA was. Key word is update
LAME! I had to stop watching about half way through the video. So many errors.
Yip, very miss leading.😟
ford introduced the case comfort king series wwwhhhaatt! lets not rewrite history
Believe Harry Fergusson had to sue H Ford (imagine that!) to receive his agreed royalty sum.
Yeah!
@@timeunity8457 Ford lost money buildings the 9 n.
It was the biggest money award by a court in history, up to that point.

Ford purchased new Holland a few years before they sold ford new Holland to fiat
Turned this off for the English accent.
Pity that you keep repeating the same things over and over and over...
Very jumbled, hard to follow. It appeared that ford became New Holland 3 times?
