Tractor Buying Guide

Tractors are an essential piece of farm equipment for large and small agricultural operations the world over. But it’s important to think carefully about what you need from a tractor before you buy one so that you choose the best model for your farm and the tasks you need to do. This guide to buying a tractor will help you narrow down your options.

Think About How You’ll Use It

First, think about how you intend to use the tractor. Certain models are designed to suit different purposes, and you’ll want to ensure you get a model that can use the attachments and implements that your work requires.

Consider Acreage

If you buy a very small tractor for a large acreage, you’re not going to be able to work very efficiently. By the same turn, you don’t want to get a behemoth of a tractor that can’t fit on a compact work site. You should also analyze your property to determine if you’ve got any major obstacles or steep hills you’ll have to work around; some tractors will be more maneuverable than others.
