A pattern for power distribution based on tractor demand in Iran

Abstract

This study was aimed to propose a pattern to distribute tractors in the country, Iran. A pattern was suggested based on previous tractor demands in all provinces. Results showed that Iran agriculture needs minimal 33460 tractors with nominal power average of 53 kw. These tractors cost approximately 334.6 million dollars to the country. Tractors’ allowance should be continued with the previous rate till farmers have no longer problem with power supplies are needed to fulfill their demands and to replace the depreciated machines.
