Your question was "can I use a marine battery in my tractor for winter" If winter is cold where you live and the tractor takes a lot of amps to turn over, then a deep cycle battery may not be able to produce enough amps to start a cold, stiff engine. A conventional battery designed for cranking, lighting, ignition duty will better be able to produce that huge rush of power for a few seconds needed to crank a cold engine. Some Marine batteries are a hybrid with some of the characteristics of both a deep cycle and cranking battery. They are a bit weaker in cranking a big engine, but better able to tollerate medium to deep cycling than an ordinary cranking battery for those that use the same battery to start the big inboard / outboard motor and run an electric trolling motor.
