Can I expect a 4WD 30HP diesel tractor to be able to handle the mowing (bush hogging) required in an 11 acre pasture if I hope to only do it 3-4 times a season?
I guess I'm asking 3 questions:How big a bite can I take out of the grass before the tractor/mower labors under the load, at what reasonable speed can I expect to be able to mow, and how many acres per hour can I mow in the most challenging scenario? ie, "grass very thick and too high!"
I'm getting close to making a decision and for my price range and needs I continue to flirt with the TC33, an older NH 1630 and a 1999 JD 4400.
Your input is all very helpful, Thanks in advance...
