The story of the ascension of the Valtra tractor brand to it's premier position today ranking alongside the likes of John Deere, Massey Ferguson, Fendt & New Holland, is an interesting one. 

Read all about the evolution of what has become the last remaining tractor manufacturer in Scandinavia in Justin Robert's excellent Hardback book "The Nordic Tractor" published in 2017. ISBN No 9781910456750 published by Old Pond. Almost 200 pages and including over 100 photos. Original RRP at least £19.95.

Inside you will find that "The Nordic Tractor" isn't just a collective term for the tractors of Sweden & Finland over the years. It was, in fact given to a range of Valmet mid-sized tractors produced in the early 1980's as a result of a joint venture between Volvo & Valmet.
As Volvo bowed out of tractor production to concentrate on passenger cars, trucks & construction plant, Valmet revamped the range in the late 80's calling it Power Plus and for the first time from any mainstream tractor manufacturer, offering the customer a choice of 4 colours!

Lots more to discover in the twists & turns of the Volvo, Valmet, Valtra association in this book! While kids may like flicking through the photos, this is definitely a book for adults.
