Little Fergie revolutionized agriculture
Over half a million times this tractor, which is inconspicuous at first glance, has been built – Wiking makes the Ferguson TE the legendary British classic model! Because the small fergie had it in itself at the time. It is no wonder that it is still considered a great achievement of British tractor history and ultimately became the international legend of agriculture. With their imagination, the agricultural technology revolutionized, as Ferguson's three-point, rolling-over coupling was introduced for the first time. Thanks to its power-lifting hydraulics, it did completely new work-relief tasks. Today, remarkably, 85% of all tractor units produced worldwide are based on Harry Ferguson's unique idea. Between 1946 and 1956, the fuel produced by 23 or 25 hp petrol or diesel engines became the best-selling tractor of all times. After market success, Harry Ferguson merged with Massey Harris as early as 1953 – the new tractor manufacturer Massey Ferguson was born. In Germany, the small fergie, which ran off the line 517,649 times, was rather rare, because the tractor market was due to a wide range of suppliers including Deutz, Fahr, Normag and Hanomag & Co. was filled with high competition. For this reason, the "Little Grey Fergie" is one of the rare, but then much admired classics at tractor meetings in German lands.
