Seriously, could be any part of the steering mechanism. I recommend you take some time and perform some logical troubleshooting and figure out exactly where the problem is.
First, jack up the front end from the middle. Does it steer easy now? If so, your tires are flat or you have a loader on the tractor. Inflate the tires, or remove the loader, or learn to live with it.
Next disconnect the tie rods. Does it steer easy now? If so the problem is in the king pins, as stated. You will probably need to remove the spindles and clean them up to get things moving.
If it still steers hard with the front end off the ground and the tie rods disconnected the problem is in the gearbox. Probably worn bushings causing the gears to bind up, or poor maintenance and lack of lubrication in the gearbox. If it's lack of lubrication, again, you'll have to take it apart and clean up the shafts and bushings with some super-fine abrasive.
