Would be used 100% for haying (small square bales).
pulling a haybine mower (which I don't own yet) - and a jd 24t baler dropping on the ground, no wagon attached.
Might want something to occassinoally pull a discbine, but thinking probably not since I don't want to spend more money for the extra horsepower on this one. (but since I don't really know what models to look at - not sure if it'd be a possibility - discbine needs a minimum of 90hp. assuming I won't want to buy something that big)
Areas we do are fairly hilly so we drop them on the ground.
I need something that'll EASILY handle the weight of the baler and or full wagons on the hills (nothing too radical, but some are enough to make you a little nervous going down with a full wagon behind).
I've used an M for years (and I'd call it a little on the light/underpowered side), alos use a JD 630 which feels closer to appropriate.
I like live pto.
I'm just not familiar with anything farmall after the 350/450 series.
560 - etc.
I'm not sure how the numbers even run from that point in history.
I know it's a very subjective question - but if you had to buy one do-it-all haying tractor (this one would do about 3000/4000 bales/year - don't ask me the acreage, lots of small fields)
And money was a prime concern...
What would you pick? Anything to avoid. I know the 560's had some rearend strength issues...
