When the generator is made to be PTO driven (e.g. has a gear box to convert 540 to 1800 or 3600 RPM at the generator shaft) the connection to the tractor is no more difficult than connecting any PTO driven equipment.

If the irrigation equipment company has only generators that need 1800 RPM and can't supply the gear boxes, the connection to the PTO IS difficult.

40 HP engine power will be marginal if you load the total 30KVA and may not start the largest motor successfully if anything else is running. It may be necessary to carefully control the sequence of starting to start the largest motor by itself then the other motor, still one at a time.
