You don't say which model of Massey Ferguson you are looking at.

Any of the tractors you mention should be able to meet the needs you have stated.

The 8N Fords will not have live pto or live hydraulics. They have a pto and they have a hydraulic three point hitch, but they are not live. Thousands of people get by with an 8N doing just what you say you're going to do, but feature-wise, live is better...just not always indispensible.

The Ford Jubilee is a step up from the 8N. It has live hydraulics but still has the non-live pto like the 8N.

The Massey Fergusons may or may not have live pto, depending on the specific model you are talking about. On many of the MF models, there will be a three letter prefix before the serial number on the ID tag. Those three letters will tell you engine type and pto type. You could post specific questions on the MF board on this site for more details.

Good luck!
