Hi there,
We have a small farm and are looking to buy a good used tractor with a loader, pto, and 3 point hitch. We want to be able to make hay (run a mower, tedder, etc.) and clip pastures. Ideally we would eventually like to carry round bales with it. We have both used tractors before but I am unsure what HP is recommended for this kind of activity/weight.
Any advice? Would be grateful for any suggestions as to models/brands as well as size.
Thanks,
Lucy
p.s. our land is somewhat hilly and we are in VT so there's snow 1/2 the year!
