Just curious, what would the reason be to skip the bucket?
I know of many who have done without it but had every need for one, from small farms like you mention, going back many years, to even my neighbor/dairy farmer, whom I recall, only had a 620 JD with a manure bucket for the longest time, yet he had much larger later model JD tractors. Subsequently, he did replace a 3020 with a 3150 with a loader, he would have never gone back to living without one that is for sure. I could not live without one here, did for years, just a necessity and a very handy one at that.
In regards to a tractor, I'd consider several utility size models, prefer an industrial ford, but if doing ag, 40-50 HP general purpose type would be fine, with a loader, 4 wheel drive would be nice, really nice and there is a need given the hills here for example, but if the budget could not allow it, I could live without that.
