SOVIET UNION NEW TRACTORS & AGRICULTURAL EQUIPMENT PROPAGANDA FILM 48884

[@bctw9004]

I found an old Russian tractor that was parked in an abandoned barn in the Tn hills. Very simple design, air cooled motor, got it running and Bush jogged with it for years! Tough as nails!

I want to buy

Thank you for this beautiful video, I needed to find something like this.

I adore that absolutely everything that was filmed in USSR is labeled "propaganda" by the westerners.

[@MrMuruks]

During USSR the opposite were true as well, just a lot worse. Most western media content were banned as it usually portrayed a prosperity people in the soviet union did not have. But yeh, I see your point :)

In this short film, I see modern agricultural equipment being produced to a functional standard, doing the laborious jobs speedily. I also see adaptations being made (in the latter scenes), demonstrating ingenuity; solving a mechanical problem utilising existing equipment in a new way. This is high quality photography, similar to what I regularly enjoy from my favourite farming channel "Tractorspotter", except the drone views weren't possible in the 60's and 70's. Where is the propaganda aspect if we can't understand the language? i.e. distortion of the truth by glossing over negatives, emphasising positives - like a used car sales pitch. Seems pretty legit to me. I traversed East Germany in 1970 for a few days (freely in my own hired car, without "minders" to escort me), and was "shocked" to see a functioning community of apparently happy people enjoying their lives, just like in Australia, where I had come from. Western Media had taught me that East Germans (under Soviet rule), were all downtrodden, miserable and half starving. The propaganda had fooled me into a distorted view of another political system. The real truth was "somewhere in the middle" I suspect, with good aspects and bad aspects in both systems.

To put it simply, the people behind iron curtain (or atleast the ones closer to the west) were living in a cage, but they could do everything they wanted. Wanna be a truck driver? Go for it and enjoy good payment. Wanna be a construction worker? Well just do it. The problem was when you wanted to be somewhere ''higher'' because education highly depended on your state with the ruling party, if your parents were in the party, you were okay and could go even to university, but if they were considered ''enemy of the state'' by simply not liking communism, your best bet was a construction worker with just elementary education. Everyone had theyr own document made by the state, opinions on that person, and in what they could be trusted, strenghts and weakneses of that person. You get the idea. I want to say that i am young person just existing in post iron curtain country. You get different idea when you find these documents (They were given to the person they documented after the fall of communism in 1989) and see how your own parents were seen by the eyes of the goverment. You were living in a cage, and your actions were documented, but if you were smart enough, you could surpass almost anything.

For religious people it was a pain or so Ive heard from Soviet christians who had to hide their beliefs

[@wegder]

@@INeedJesus4sure According to some sources, the total number of Christian victims under the Soviet regime has been estimated to range around 12 to 20 million.[8][9] (though post release archive estimates of the Soviet deaths to mass killing and policies as a whole range from 3 to 20 million;

In OECD member Chile we still do that labour manually. If getting shit done counts as propaganda then the Soviets were pretty good at it.

La ingeniería sovietica fue la mejor de la época mientras el Ford 5000 llegaba a los 67hp y jhon deere 70 llegaba a 53hp los Belarus mtz80 sovieticos llegaban a los 80hp y podían rastrar arado de 6palas con un contrapeso.

Así es muchas bombas e inyectores de yumz que reparar mientras viví en Cuba había personas que ponían en el tanque de combustible aceite de transformadores electricos,y funcionaba, pero dañaba,los elementos de la bomba plungers,y puntas de injection

Caption...?

[@motorhead6763]

nice. Look no south American farm workers...lol

[@alexanderrosales7675]

Ironically these were used alot in South America because they were better built and prefered over American Tractors in harsh conditions.

[@k3kboi665]

I feel a sharp pain in my soul when ever i see people using tracked tractors beinf used in the field.

[@ericl8743]

Why? They're still used today... Tracks are better but more expensive.

[@knightofficer]

@@ericl8743 because caterpillar tracks are terribly notorious for ripping up whatever surface they're used on, and espeically very thin tracks tend to be pretty poor for ground pressure/weight distribution

[@ericl8743]

@@knightofficer tracks are way better than wheels in fields. That's what we use in our fields. Look up the case quartrac or the John Deere RX series tractors. The difference is between steel and rubber tracks. Tractor tracks provide much lower soil compaction which is why we use them in the field and they don't get stuck along with many other benefits

[@spannaspinna]

@@knightofficer you Havnt had anything to do with tracked machines have you

[@harrisengr]

@@ericl8743 I have rented rubber tracked loaders for big home projects and they are wonderful. Could not get stuck. Nashville, Tn.
