The change intervals for oils vary from engine/vehicle/tractor to engine. It also varies on the type/brand of oil too. All oils are NOT created equal regardless of the "certification" and therefore some will not protect your engine as long as others and will need to be changed more often. A healthy engine will not require the oil to be changed as often. Not all filters are equal either. Wix and Amsoil (made by Wix) filters are and you can buy Wix at Napa for the same price or less than the orange ones at walli-world-market. For diesels (and gas engines too) the base number is important to determine the capability and life of the oil. (see link below). If you can monitor your oil you can go with an extended drain interval with some. Amsoil has gone 80,000 miles in diesel trucks with monitoring (do not try this without checking the oil health!!)
The main thing is if you take care of your equipment it will take care of you. Good maintenance is not an expense.
