Am looking for input and recommendations on the right sized tractor for a small hay operation. I have approx 20 acres of pasture that I would like to start working for hay. I don't currently own a tractor and I want to make sure I purchase enough engine and PTO power to handle the job. I will also be doing some FEL work and some ground work including tilling and plowing. I have been looking at the 45 - 60 hp range in the JD 4x20 series and the MF 1600 series. How much engine and PTO hp do I need to look for. Any other factors I need to consider?
