Padmakar Parihar, What part of India are you located? As for your question regarding tractors, you have already been given some good advice from the other posts. I have had the opportunity to be in your country three different times. As a mechanical engineer and as a farmer I more than casually observed your tractors. I am not familiar with the Farmtrac. Of the remaining on the list, I am somewhat aware. The Massey Ferguson would be my choice. The quality of these appear to be the same the world over where the other tractors (not including New Holland) are copies which did not reproduce to the originals. In my opinion, New Holland has not done anything to what used to be a Ford tractor, in the horsepower that you would be buying, except to cheapen it. Any one or all on the list may perform but with the restraints and costs on available imported parts and the need to have a basic no frill tractor that will do the tasks day after day with minimal repairs and low technical support stick with the tractors you know. If all things are equal among these, then look at the subtle differences in the machining on the M-F. The differences that you can see on the outside are most likely present on the inside. Good luck
