That's simple, just go out and purchase a tractor and you'll be the market! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

No disscussing politics on TBN. (Unless you like being deleted)
Social? Usually we are!
Economical? All you can afford, or all the CFO/wife will allow
Natural? Only one of those on here. Never liked being nekkid on a hot tractor seat
Technological? See Fuel and Oil Forum! They'll lay the tech talk on ya! (On most any subject)
Hope this helps

Suzane,
I can't speak for the rest of the folks on TBN but I can't even spell most of the words you used with out a spell checker. I think that most of us are into using and building the equipment, not doing a whole lot of thinking about all of those words you used as they relate to farm equipment.
Hope we haven't scared you away. Welcome aboard!
You aren't from California are you?

This sure sounds like a homework assignment to me. Nothing like trying to get a bunch of strangers to do your work for you. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Good Luck!

Suzane I will give it a shot.
Political: The influx of parts and pre-assemblies from economically disadvantaged countries as well as China, Japan, and India as related to imports(WTO). The manufacturing of parts in foreign countries verses made in America. The loss of American jobs in manufacturing tractor parts once made in America(ie Ford/New Holland, John Deere, McCorrmick). Flip-side, companies who assemble tractors in the US are providing jobs through assemble, sales and service.
Social: Social as related to the diverse demographics, education, and financial. With the introduction of the CUT and Sub-CUT as well as the utility tractor it is no longer farmers only who buy tractors but doctors, attorneys, manufacturing, self-employed, and hobby enthusiast across the USA that buy tractors. From Rural America to Suburbia. People with very diverse backgrounds who my pass each other on the street and not speak now have a common thread where the long time farmer and the attorney may pass each other at a dealership talk tractors and equipment as though they have been friends for years. Overall tractor owners are a great group of people who love their country and fellow man and will go out of their way to help one another.
Economical: This would relate to and combine both the political and social statments.
Natural: Not sure what you are asking for here.
Technological: Todays large farm tractors have GPS systems, weather satellite links, computers, digital readouts, and most of the conveniences of some high end cars. The smaller size utility and CUT have some of the same options availiable. They are user friendly which has greatly increased sales to people who you would never imagine owning a tractor.
Some people like the technological advances and some don't.
Myself, I grew up on a small, what you would call now, hobby farm. I have been around tractors all my life. I enjoy getting on my tractor and leaving the world's troubles behind, talking to anyone who has an interest in tractors or agriculture. I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Industrial Technology, my wife a Masters Degree. I worked and paid my on way through college. I work a stressful job in Aerospace sales and as soon as my son gets his degree I hope to simplify my life and have a small Agri-Business going.
I hope this answered some of your questions.

Environmental impact? Like when you spill a little diesel on the ground changing the fuel filters or bleed'in the lines... or that bit of oil that hits the ground when the wind blows just as the last bit of oil runs outta the drain hole and slobbers down the side of the drain pan? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif And the plume of black smoke when your air filter is dirty? /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
