Abstract: The main power tool used in agricultural production is the tractor. For efficient production, the availability of tractors and other types of agricultural machinery must meet certain requirements. Security, in turn, depends on the financial capacity of agricultural producers and on the state of the agricultural machinery market. Due to the recent situation, agricultural tractors from China, including Zoomlion, have appeared on the Russian agricultural machinery market. For Russian agricultural producers, the question arises of the advisability of acquiring a tractor of a particular company. The main supplier to the Russian market of agricultural tractors is the Minsk Tractor Plant. This study presents a comparative analysis of the operational properties of the Belarus 2122.6 and Zoomlion PL 2304 tractors. In addition to comparing technical and economic indicators, traction properties, an analysis of the operational properties during agricultural work with various ballasting options was made and the effect of ballasting on traction and operational properties was determined. As a result of the study, recommendations were proposed on the use of ballast weights and dual wheels to improve the performance properties of tractors when performing various technological operations in agricultural production.
