Hugh, I know you asked this question to Allan, ButI couldn't help but jump in here!
You are Preaching to the Chior here. Efficiency and H20 conservation is the Name of the Game NOW!
My relatives do all primary tillage with this type if tractor. The larger 150+ hp are now relagated to lessor tillage practices, or smaller fields where the 4x4 are not practial. Even the smaller farmers have made the jump to MFWD 150+hp row-crop models.
The day of the high hp 2 wheeler is over. Yes they are used in places or on sure-enough smaller farms. Most of the high hp 2 wheelers have simply moved from farms to ranches and such. They have a loader on them now and live with a batwing shredder. Where they are now on the front line, keeping noxious weeds,forbs ,invading woody spieies in check on Ranches. Water conservation or grass land is just as important as on tillable land. or they have been hauled to Mexico never to be seen again!
Later,
John A.
