Based on changing conditions for tractor utilization the requirements on tractor concepts for cultivation an application purposes are deducted. From data of a survey about on farm tractor utilization, the special use and implement parameters are ascertained. They become the basis for developing a specification list. In a model examination alternative tractor concepts are defined and assessed regarding the fulfillment of the requirements, using a multi attribute utility technique. It shows that specialized light load carriers have significant advantages compared to standard and system tractors. Modell calculations of the use of these specialized tractor concepts for cultivation and application purposes conclude the work.
