How to Choose the Right Tractor
If you’ll plough in rains or use a loader often, choose 4WD.
Match acreage & tasks to Horse Power.
Under 5 acres 35–50 horse power for mowing, spraying, light tillage and haulage. 5–20 acres: 60 Horse Power to 75 horse power and handles 2–3 × 14″ ploughs, 6–8 feet harrows, small balers think of Massey Ferguson 375 or New Holland TT75.For 20–50 acres: 80Horse Power to 95 Horse Power for 3–4 furrow ploughs, heavier discs and loaders. 50+ acres choose 100–120+ horse power for wide implements and transport work.

2WD vs 4WD (terrain & implements).
2WD is cheaper and fine on flat, dry fields and road haulage. 4WD gives far better traction on wet clay, slopes, and with front loaders—less wheel slip, faster fieldwork, but higher purchase/maintenance.

Implements compatibility.
Confirm 3-point hitch category (Cat I vs II), PTO speed (standard 540 rpm), and hydraulic lift/flow. Rules of thumb: ~12–15 PTO hp per 14″ plough bottom; ~5–7 engine hp per foot of disc harrow. Match implement working width to HP and soil type; loaders need adequate pump flow and a reinforced front axle.
Spares & service in Kenya. Massey Ferguson and New Holland
They have the widest spares network (Nakuru, Eldoret, Nairobi, Mombasa). Case/John Deere support is strongest around Nairobi; Sonalika/YTO/Solis vary by dealer. Before buying, confirm nearby parts suppliers, availability of filters/consumables, and a reliable fundi within 50–100 km. Popular models reduce downtime and hold resale value.
Pre-Purchase Inspection Checklist on Jiji
Engine & exhaust
Cold start from overnight and listen for hard cranking. Check blow-by by loosening the oil cap—excessive pulsing = worn rings. Smoke: blue (oil burning), white (coolant), black (fuel/air). Look for oil/coolant leaks and uneven idle.
Tip: price drops fast with high hours, weak hydraulics, tired tires, or missing papers; rises with documented service, clean hydraulics, and fresh rubber.
Transmission/clutch & brakes
Drive in all gears, including reverse with no grinding or popping out. Engage 4WD (if fitted) and diff-lock. Clutch should bite mid-travel without slip under load. Brakes must stop straight and evenly.
Hydraulics & 3-point
Raise a 3-point load (plough/weight) to full height it should hold 10–15 min without dropping—creep suggests internal leaks/pump wear. Check hitch sway, top-link threads, and external hose leaks.
PTO under load
With a slasher/chaff-cutter attached, engage 540 rpm; PTO should start smoothly, hold speed, and disengage cleanly (no grinding).
Tires, chassis & welds
Even tread, no sidewall cuts. Inspect chassis, front axle, and loader mounts for cracks, fresh welds, or overspray. Compare hour-meter to pedal/lever wear for plausibility.
Documents
Verify serial/engine numbers match the invoice/logbook. For imports, see KRA entry, bill of lading, and customs release. Write a bill of sale with seller ID; avoid prepayment.
Hire purchase / SACCO
Expect 20–40% deposit, 6–24-month terms; check processing fees, insurance, and early-settlement penalties.
Delivery & transport
Clarify who pays hauling, off-loading, and fuel; get a running demo on arrival.
Warranty & parts
For used units, insist on a written 30–90-day engine/gearbox warranty (if offered), parts availability (filters, clutch kits, pumps), and a named fundi/dealer contact for support.

Which brand has the best spares network locally?
Massey Ferguson and New Holland have the broadest parts availability nationwide (Nakuru, Eldoret, Nairobi, Mombasa). Case and John Deere support is solid in major towns but not as omnipresent upcountry.
How to verify a tractor is not stolen / has valid import docs?
Match numbers Engine & chassis/serial stamps must match the logbook/NTSA TIMS record. Ownership trail the seller’s ID matches logbook owner (or company CR12 if corporate). Use a simple sale agreement. Import papers (if ex-import): KRA entry, IDF, bill of lading, customs release, and (ex-UK) export/deregistration certificate.
Jiji is a classifieds marketplace, not an escrow. They don’t hold your money or guarantee transactions. Their guidance is to meet the seller, inspect the tractor, and pay on delivery (no prepayments) + use common-sense safety checks.
Typically Massey Ferguson is cheapest/easiest to source (big aftermarket). New Holland parts are widely available via the new Inchcape distributor network. Case/John Deere are well supported in major towns but often costlier
Yes dealer hire-purchase or bank/SACCO asset finance is common. Terms depend on the seller and your lender (expect a deposit + monthly instalments). Many ads mention HP/bank/SACCO finance explicitly.
Usually yes (at buyer’s cost). Delivery is arranged directly with the seller or via third-party logistics; Jiji lists transport providers you can hire. Always pay on delivery after inspection.
If the tractor is registered (has a logbook), transfer is done online in NTSA TIMS/eCitizen. You’ll typically need Original logbook, seller & buyer IDs, KRA PINs, sale agreement, and the TIMS transfer initiated by the seller and accepted by the buyer; fees apply. For imported units, keep KRA entry/clearance on file.
