What I am about to suggest will depend entirely upon where you live, and whether you have an off farm job or not. Well, I'm not suggesting it, just questioning if it MIGHT work for you or not. Can you do some crop rotation planning so that only 70 or so acres need worked at any one time? Such as winter wheat, corn, and soybeans. Will you have some stock so that a part of the acreage will be in a feed crop? If the aforementioned might work for you, you may be able to get by with the Super M by just spending more time in the field. Would you consider no-til or minimum-til, and do the majority of your work with a sprayer and chemicals? You would have to spend more hours planting since you probably couldn't handle a big planter, but you would have little tillage, if any, at all. Just giving you something to think about. It may not work for your scenario or area at all.
