Please forgive the image quality as the subject was terribly back-lit by a blazing sun. I was passing by as passenger in a team-wagon, else I would have taken many more pictures from different angles. As it is, this is the only shot I got. 
It sort of has an Allis look about it; but, I can barely make out what seems to say "Dragon" Could it possibly be a product of this endeavor : https://tractors.fandom.com/wiki/Dragon_Tractor
Thanks for reading and all help is appreciated.

Yes, I see what you see... the hood says DRAGON. They're rebadged imports.

I believe you are right; the mystery is solved; thanks for the identification. That tractor is sitting way back in the end of nowhere in very rural KY. I am always seeing such things on these mule wagon trail rides; it's really a good way to see rural KY; otherwise, if you are in a vehicle, you are gripping the wheel in mortal fear of driving off into a bottomless hollow and can't do much sight-seeing. If you step out of the wagon for a closer look, you run the real risk of being eaten alive by feroscious dogs or getting shot. Just stay in the wagon and let the mules worry about navigation.

There are a group of mule team and horse team owners in the next county over from me that hardly misses a weekend having a big wagon ride. Sometimes, there are as few as a half-dozen wagons; and, sometimes, there are sixty or more. Casey County KY is very rural, with some of the steepest, most inaccessible, little remote communities that have no easy way to get there = ideal wagon-riding country. I don't own a team/wagon myself, but these guys are gracious enough to let me go along. I have measured some of the rides and twenty miles is about average. It is always an adventure.

They should put out the call and sell tickets. I would buy one for that kind of show and maybe a possum bake somewhere along the way!
