The problem with a lot of the older tractors is implements depending on the area. Here the farm crisis of the 80's saw most small farmers retire or fail. Many of the "made to fit" implements were not wanted or needed for the bigger guys who survived and picked up a lot of land cheap. So they went for scrap. Now both the yuppie types who think that stuff make good yard art and collectors who want to show a tractor with an implement have driven the price through the roof. Not uncommon to watch a 1 bottom trailer plow that's broken sell at auction for 300 bucks or so. Because parts are no longer available a collector buys 2 or 3 of the same model to make one. Mounted cultivators have all but disappeared too. In my area try to find a fast hitch, snap coupler or eagle hitch implement in poor condition for under 500. So for the small sustainable or organic guy here it's gotta be 3 point. Some of the old implements are spendy but you can buy new implements with good parts support. Plows, disk, cultivators, sub soilers, rear and box blades, post hole augers can be bought new. The problem is that for older row crop tractors you can spend well over 1K, near a tractors value, to add a 3 point and the hydraulics to run it. For a lot of the smaller guys and hobbyist that's not affordable. Not when you gotta buy the tractor, hitch, pump, hoses and valves plus the implements. No association but just one company's offerings https://www.howseimplement.com/ . Try finding a mounted cultivator for an A, B or C Farmall in these parts that's complete and usable.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
