1 getting the trees out and getting cash
2 stump removal
3 little surface roots (just under the surface)
4 leveling things out (clean up of all of above)
5 planting / dealing with orchard and general maintenance
1and 2 are bigger jobs, 3 and 4 can be big jobs as well. 5 is were your tractor is going to come in at.
2 through 5 you might get away with a small amount of acreage. but you are talking a lot of acres. and you would be wasting more time / money on a small tractor vs bigger machinery. since you won't need the bigger machinery afterwards. you are stuck at...
A. paying someone else to do it
B. renting and doing it yourself
C. buying a used machine/s and doing it yourself. then selling after you get done. .
