I purchased 8 acres of property. Plan is to regularly maintain 4-5 acres while mowing the rest 3-4 times/year. Land is flat with no outstanding characteristics. I need suggestions on horsepower along with implements needed. Would like to disc 3-4 acre portion on occasion. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!

Sistre,I will try to help, H.P. ratings are determined by the type of work that you will require the tractor to do. The mowing is not an issue for almost any compact can do that. The discing will require the H.P. You may want to check out a couple of discs and look at the manufacture recomended HP. As far as other implements, a loader is great for lots and lots of stuff, get one. Other implements may include something for grading and snow removal, a rear blade is helpfull. I have a York rake that I use on a regular basis also, it can be used for soil prep. or clean up over grown wildlands as well as spreading topsoil and even in driveway maint. Implements make the tractor more and more usefull, the more you have the better.Good luck and have fun.CDF ....
