One of the things I enjoy is reading about tractors and folks farming with them back in the 50's. Lots of a acreage farmed with Farmall H's, M's and similar tractors. My Wife's grand father owned and operated a small dairy using Farmall H and later a Super H.
Around my neck of the woods, we never really saw many of those tractors, mostly Ford 8N's and Ferguson 20/30's and later model tractors like a MF 35 or a Ford Jubilee type tractors. Probably due to small fields and mountainous terrain and a full time day job.
None the less, these folks got it done with a tractor under 50 hp.
I realize that times have changed, farmers have to do more with less, manpower is scarce, bigger equipment is used, disc mowers that require more hp, more plows being pulled than a 3 or 4 bottom.
Question is - who is still farming under 50 hp as we steam towards 2015?
