Track Tractor and Peat Harvester (Saldus)

Track tractor DT 75B, intended for various soil work and agricultural activities, was one of the most popular tractors in the Soviet time and was produced from the 1960s till 2015. This specific tractor was made in 1989 to work in bogs. It has a wider chassis and wider tracks, which is indicated in the model by the letter B from the Russian word “болотный”, which means “for bogs”.

Peat harvesters like this MTF-43 were produced in the Soviet time in the 70s and 80s. Nowadays, there are more modern and effective peat harvesters, but in the post-Soviet countries these machines are still used.
