I agree with the suggestions about a bigger tractor needed for hauling manure especially if you are in hilly ground. I would suggest a 50-90hp tractor weighted to the 8,000 to 12,000# range depending on the size of the spreader.

Do you need to trim weeds and dry thatch back to 4-12" in the pastures or do you really need to cut brush? A good 3 point hitch tractor with an IHC 1300 9' sickle bar mower set up with a gauge wheel on the end of the bar and a limit chain to control the height of the inner shoe will let you trim 60 acres evenly in about 11 hours (if your ground is smooth enough to allow you to run 5-7 mph) on the least amount of fuel.
If you are trimming grass and weeds with a shredder, you will need about 3X as much hp to pull the same width as a sickle bar trimming grass and weeds.
