During WWII, my dad was farming his place and those of his brothers-in-law (in the service) with one F-20. The main problem was the farms were about 20 miles apart. He had to haul his field equipment (before wheel discs and mounted equipment) so he built a trailer out of an old Ford 2 ton truck. He removed the front axle and engine and pulled the front of the frame together to make a hitch. He attached the tractor pto to the front of the truck transmission and let the trailer push him. The weight of the old truck with dual rear wheels and the equipment kept him from going very fast, but it let him get his equipment back and forth between farms a lot faster than he could have otherwise. The remains of the trailer are still on the farm.
