You, clearly, do not realise it was actually the other way round.

The model name came from Tractor, England 20 horsepower (not the true power delivered but from a formula based on engine size, see tax horsepower).

The TE range of Ferguson tractors were introduced in England in 1946 following 30 years of continuous development of 'The Ferguson System' from 1916. The first work was to design a plough and linkage to integrate the tractor with its work in a manner that was an engineering whole. The automatic control system is now employed by almost all tractor manufacturers worldwide. A British patent was applied for by Harry Ferguson in 1925 and granted the following year.

By the early 1930s the linkage design was finalised and is now adopted as international standard category I. Just one prototype Ferguson System tractor, known as the Ferguson Black, was built to further technical development as well as demonstrating to potential manufactures. During 1936 the first production Ferguson tractors were built in Huddersfield, Yorkshire by the David Brown Company. This tractor, the Ferguson Model 'A' incorporated Harry Ferguson's 'suction side' hydraulic control system, the key to solving sensitive automatic control of three point mounted implements and patented on 5 February 1936 (patent no 470069). The combination of Ferguson's converging three point hitch, patented on 3 July 1928 (patent no 320084) with his 'suction side control' valve is the key to the success of all subsequent Ferguson and later Massey Ferguson 'Ferguson System' tractors, the most important of which is the TE and TO 20 models. (It was the production of the Model 'A' that led in 1939 to the David Brown line of tractors).[1]

In order to get volume production with lower costs Harry Ferguson, following a demonstration of his tractor before Henry Ford Senior in October 1938, did a gentlemen's agreement with Ford to produce the Ferguson tractor in Detroit starting mid 1939.[citation needed] About 300,000 of these tractors, known as "Ford Ferguson" were produced up to 30 June 1947.

But then, why should I be surprised that credit is not given where credit is due given that the TE20 was introduced in 1946 and the 8N in 1947?
