== Nebraska tests == {{Anchor|Nebraska tractor tests}} [[Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory|Nebraska tractor tests]] are tests mandated by the [[Nebraska]] Tractor Test Law and administered by the [[University of Nebraska system|University of Nebraska]], that objectively test the performance of all brands of tractors, 40 horsepower or more, sold in Nebraska. In the 1910s and 1920s, an era of [[snake oil]] sales and advertising tactics, the Nebraska tests helped farmers throughout North America to see through marketing claims and make informed buying decisions. The tests continue today, making sure tractors fulfill the manufacturer's advertised claims.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Splinter|first1=William|title=The Biological Systems Engineering Program in Nebraska 1895β2011|url=https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/biosysengfacpub/212/|journal=Biological Systems Engineering: Papers and Publications|access-date=10 January 2018|date=January 2012}}</ref>
