Every year more and more landowners are starting to use walk-behind tractors in the household. These versatile soil cultivation machines help you cultivate plots ranging from a few acres to a whole hectare in a matter of hours.

On the market you can find a huge number of motoblocks from different manufacturers. Depending on the power of the engine, they are divided into three types:

• Heavy motoblocks. Very powerful professional devices used to cultivate virgin lands. They weigh over 100 kilograms and have complete gearboxes. With the help of heavy tillers, you can easily plow fields up to one hectare, making them an excellent choice for small farms. Additional plows, mowers and other accessories are offered with some models. In addition to processing the soil, such devices can perform some of the tasks of the tractor - for example, transport goods, clear the area of ​​snow, harvest or harvest hay.
• Medium motoblocks. Semi-professional devices weighing up to 100 kilograms with engines ranging from 5 to 10 horsepower. Thanks to their decent weight, they are able to cope even with hard soil. One of the forward gears of medium-power walk-behind tractors is always power, which allows you to reduce the speed of the working shaft for using a plow, potato digger or other attachments.
• Light motoblocks. Compact devices with a low weight (up to 75 kilograms), greatly simplifying the plowing of the land. They are maneuverable and agile, so even a beginner can easily cope with their control. They are an ideal choice for owners of a small summer cottage. Due to its small dimensions, devices of this type can be transported in an ordinary passenger car.

The most popular in our country are motoblocks from the Russian brand "Neva". Against the background of the main competitors ("Salute" and "Ugra"), they stand out for their greater reliability and favorable prices. These units are equipped with foreign-made engines, which have a long service life and guarantee efficient operation under any load. In addition, much more branded attachments are produced for Neva walk-behind tractors, which increase the functionality of the devices.

Considering the above advantages, we decided to compile a list of the best models from this particular manufacturer. Our Top 5 Neva motoblocks include both light and medium devices for summer cottages and heavy units for farms. When compiling the rating, reviews of real consumers from different regions of Russia were taken into account.
