Hey Ladies and Gents. I purchased 10 acres recently and would like advice from those of you willing to listen. I need to clear about 5 acres but the end plan is to have a few head of cattle and 2 horses max due to limited space. I will be buying more land but that is later. I have asked local friends and farmers and been recommended to buy a 50 HP tractor. Simply due to the weight and allowing the front bucket to dig. I plan on using the tractor to clear brush, grade driveway, plow small garden, landscaping. Basically the normal outside honey do list. I also need to dig trenches for water removal. I have visited the usual manufacturers around my area such as JD, Massey, Kubota and New Holland. From talking with them, Massey seems better due to ease of small maintenance at home like Oil, filters etc. I am like many with a small shallow pocket. Your experiance and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
