For snow blowing, you _need_ live pto. For baling hay, you _really want_ live pto. You may have a difficult time meeting your budget & finding a usable tractor for hay & snow removal. You also need the implements... Often times a larger, 60 hp or so, tractor is going cheaper these days than the small utility types.

A heavier tractor for pulling a baler & hayrack, or more than 50hp for a round baler. You don't need everything, and you won't get it for $2000. But, it's a starting list... --->Paul
