when you consider things such as this,look at it this way,hp is not really a measure of power,its a measure of speed.more hp = more speed.the one constant in farming anywhere is time.everything else can change.so for any given amount of work more hp means you save time.its not that 50-60-70 years ago we didnt want to farm more,its simply that we didnt have the time to farm more.if you could double your hp,and most of these things not only doubled hp but because of the way the were set up even gave you more usable hp from each tractor,you could do more,in any given amount of time.this means that for the first time farms had the potential to grow very large simply because you had the time to farm them.just as the early tractors that replaced the horse more than doubled or tripled your potential out put these also redoubled your output.no where you can think of with the possible exception of the race track is differences in hp more readily apparent than on the farm.
