Brake systems
Brakes are mandatory for all tractors and are vital especially on transportation work. Very common is to use disc brakes on agricultural tractors. Older models may have dry discs like cars and motorbikes, but nowadays tractors have "wet discs" that are cooled by transmission oil. Brakes can be boosted (amplified) or not. Usually the "boost" comes from hydraulic pump.
Also the trailer or implement attached to tractor must have brakes to maintain control over the tractor when braking.
Trailers can have air (pneumatic) or hydraulic oil pressure brakes.
