Having bought a 140 acre farm with 45 acres in woods, I recently acquired a Kubota M6800 HD.My next interest, equipment-wise, is a smaller tractor that would complement the 6800 and could be used for finish mowing of lawn areas (about 2-4 acres) around the farmhouse. The ground slopes on most of this lawn area. I would prefer a MMM.I also want to be able to use this smaller tractor to cultivate between rows in a three-acre plot. (The rows would be too closely spaced for the 6800.)So the small tractor would have to have a three-point hitch, Cat I for that and other purposes that I can't currently foresee.Those two uses bring up the question of what tires to order.Then there's always the possibility that I would want a loader on this small tractor, even though I have a huge loader on the 6800. I don't know if I'll be tempted to take it into the woods.Many of you must have gone through the same exercise, and I'd be grateful for your experiences and how you've liked the choices you made.
