They now come with heaters, air conditioning and a massive variety of additional attachments. It is a hard pressed decision to go for nostalgia or convenience.

I am sure you remember first seeing tractor equipment as I do driving through the country and being in awe at the horse pulling a plow, then going down the road a little further and seeing the farmer on the tractor doing the same work only quicker than the horse.

Working a farm is a hard job. It does not matter if you are working two or two hundred acres, the day is long and the pay is little, but it continues to be a rewarding type of work.

Attachments can be added for plowing snow or the field and the ride is definitely smoother.

Farm equipment is expensive and cost thousands of dollars for initial purchase. There are numerous attachments available as well.

The important thing to keep in mind is how much you will use your equipment.

Often used farm equipment can be purchased for reasonable prices through auctions and estate sales. If you are working a large farm it would be best to purchase a new tractor. The cost may be enormous but the equipment will last for years.

Determine how large of a tractor you will need and look through county ads for sales. If you purchase a vintage model, keep in mind that they should only be used sparingly or for show. It is interesting to find an old piece of equipment at a local auction. Most cannot wait to get their new toy home to tear it apart and see just what it’s made of.

You will probably ask yourself how you ever made it before you bought new farm tractor equipment. The work will definitely be easier and they are made extremely well.
