Well, I am PLANNING on min tilling my ground and some rented ground next year(50-possibly 400 acres in coming years), so that being said I think I am just gonna buy a decent feild cultivator and big enough tractor to pull it. Looking at prices it looks like 30-36 foot IH's are pretty reasonably priced. $2000-$10,000, but then I need to buy a larger 4x4 to pull it, which is gonna costs???? I have lighter soils, want to make 1 pass on the feilds and be able to plant, I also will ned to incorperate 3-6 tons/acre chicken manure on up to 100 acres, feilds sizes are from a 5 acre triangle to a pretty square 80, possible bigger in the future. Am I Better of with a smaller digger and tractor. Seems like they end up costing the same if not more. I want to keep the 1st 3 years as simple as possible. Any recommendations out there? Price recommendations would be appreciated as well. I need to buy this fall, so I am able to have everything ready to go come spring.
