I am wanting to buy a tractor. I have been borrowing equipment and I am done with that. I have 60 acres 1/2 timber and 1/2 open. I just dug a 2.5-3 acre pond. I need something that I can mow, brush hog, landscape, and most importantly use to put in about 5 acres of food plots. I am thinking a 40-60 HP 4wd tractor with a loader. I know I would have to use a smaller disc and brush hog but I don't mind spending a little extra time because I enjoy the work.

Do you think this sounds suitable? Those of you with experience please let me know what you think. I do not have a preference on brand.

Thanks for any information and advice.
