Platform categories and engine power
The OJA tractor platform is engineered across distinct sub-categories to meet specialized farming needs.
- Sub-Compact Range (21 to 26 HP): Ultra-narrow track width designed for grape vineyards, pomegranate orchards, and polyhouses.
- Compact Range (27 to 32 HP): Versatile utility tractors suited for inter-culture, sprayers, and lightweight tillage operations.
- Small Utility Range (35 to 40 HP): Powerful yet lightweight 4WD tractors built for wet paddy puddling without creating deep ruts or getting stuck.
- Features modern 3-cylinder DI engines delivering high torque rise and fuel efficiency.
Key technological features and automation
OJA tractors introduce digital technologies aimed at reducing operator fatigue and optimizing inputs.
- Standard 4WD: Delivers superior traction in wet muddy soils while preventing wheel slippage.
- Electric PTO: Automatic PTO engagement and disengagement during implement turns to save fuel and prevent implement damage.
- Electronic Depth and Draft Control: Provides precise implement depth control from finger-touch switches on the fender.
- Connected Tractor Telematics: Enables GPS tracking, geofencing, fuel monitoring, and maintenance alerts via smartphone apps.
Operational applications and government subsidies
Lightweight 4WD machines protect soil structure while supporting multi-crop versatility.
- Wet Paddy Cultivation: Lightweight footprint prevents pan compaction and allows easy maneuvering during puddling.
- Orchard and Vineyard Management: Narrow turning radius and compact profile allow effortless movement beneath fruit canopies without bruising branches.
- Subsidies available under SMAM and state horticulture mechanization programs for eligible small and marginal farmers.
- Verify approved tractor models on the central agricultural machinery testing portal (agrimachinery.nic.in).
