mike962 ◊ 2015-11-01 19:46	Quote The farm has 15 tractors. Most of these are 25 year old Cholimas, manufactured in DPRK. A few are newer, being 15 year old Kumsongs. These are a variation of the Cholima design and made in the same factory. The Cholima is a large, heavy under-powered two cylinder 28 hp diesel engined monstrosity designed in Russia in the late 1920s and produced in Russia during the 1930s and 1940s. The only modification from the original ‘20s design has been the addition of an external hydraulic system for the rear three point linkage. The tractors are difficult to operate, almost impossible to start in the cold winter and very inefficient in terms of traction power. Parts are made and available, but it is very difficult for the farm to actually get hold of them within the government system and there is no open market.
