Expert Review
By KhetiKyari Editorial Team
4/5
★★★★☆Expert Score
The Mahindra Jivo 245 DI fills a critical niche — the sub-25 HP compact tractor for specialty farming in India. With its narrow track width and light weight, it navigates between fruit tree rows, vegetable beds, and poly house structures where a standard tractor cannot go. The 24 HP engine is adequate for light cultivation, spraying, and small plot tillage. Farmers in Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Maharashtra's fruit belt find this indispensable. This is a specialty tool, not a primary workhorse — buying it as your only tractor for a 10+ acre flat farm would be a mistake.
Verdict: Perfect specialty tractor for orchards, vegetable farms, and small plots

Perfect for apple orchards
Best tractor for apple gardens. Fits easily between trees and the sprayer works perfectly. Fuel cost very low. Highly recommend for hill farmers who grow fruit crops.

Good for vegetable farming
Using it in my 4-acre vegetable farm. Perfect size for rotavator and planter operations between crop rows. Cannot pull heavy loads but for cultivation it is excellent.

Small but very capable
Bought for my 3-acre spice farm. Very fuel efficient — runs on about 1.5 litres/hour. Light cultivation and sprayer work perfectly. Good value for a specialty tractor.
