I've been reading through various old posts on this forum, trying to figure out what disc harrow my tractor can handle. My experience is limited to larger tractors and transport disks for food plots. Now that I have a smaller property, I have downsized tractors to a 32HP Kubota L2900. The tractor weights 2,700 pounds +/- and in addition has a FEL and rear tires loaded with foam.
I originally planned to get another (much smaller) transport disc, but I can't seem to find much (looking used) in the 5-6' range. I'm thinking that a 3 point might be the way to go, since to get to my food plot I have to drive through a 3/8 mile long, 8' wide winding path. However, there seem to be a lot of mixed reviews on whether or not a 3 point disk works well. Am I wasting my time if I go this route? If not, do you think my tractor could handle a 6' double gang disk or would 5' be more appropriate?
Widening my path is also an option, if anyone thinks my tractor could handle a pull type disk that is 7' wide (narrowest I can find) - but I have my doubts about my tractor handling that.
Also, I am not considering rototillers - soil is much to rocky in my corner of PA.
Any input would be much appreciated.
