The main application of tractors is in agriculture. The share of imports continues to grow in the structure of the agricultural machinery market. In recent years, many foreign tractors and agricultural machines, including John Deere, have been delivered to the fields of the Tyumen region. The rates of productivity and fuel-lubricants consumption for the agro-climatic conditions of the Tyumen region are not available for all tractors with agricultural machines. Therefore, for agricultural producers, their establishment becomes urgent. On the fields of agricultural enterprises of the Tyumen region, studies were conducted to establish the norms for fuel consumption and productivity of John Deere tractors with agricultural machines. The article presents the results of the study. For example, the productivity of a tractor in the «Malyshenskoye» conditions for a field located at a distance of 5-6 km and an average run length of 1,300 m can be in the range of 5.8-6.0 ha / h. Taking into account the natural and climatic conditions of the Tyumen region and the different physicomechanical composition of the soils, as well as the configuration of the fields and the run length during tillage, data were obtained of basic lubricants consumption. Recommendations on the use of fuel-lubricants consumption rates of modern tractors in the performance of various technological operations in agriculture will make it much easier to plan and calculate the operating costs of tractors with agricultural machines
