Guys,
I am in the process of purchasing about 40 acres in North central Missouri. Its mostly woods, but has 2 irregular shaped very flat bottom land fields of a good soil series normally in grain production, currently mostly in red clover. I want to obtain a little tractor that will allow me to plow disc and brush hog. Would like to get a two row planter and grow some corn milo soybeans and sunflowers. Will probably not harvest except for a little sweet corn. Will be mostly for wildlife and to improve hunting. I will stay off the surrounding hills with it, at least until I retrofit some ROPS and then would only do it with an abundance of caution. Basically its a hobby farm/food plot tractor. I dont have much money left to spend, maybe 2,500. Hope to get implements off craigs list for cheap. I am not a great mechanic, probably limited to points, carb adjusting, plugs, etc. but certainly no major overhaul. Not sure there are any diesel tractors in my price range, but the fuel economy is appealing as well as the steady power at lower rpms. What should I be looking for? Advice on what to look for when looking at the tractors is appreciated as well.
