Default RE: What brand ATV recommended for food plots?

Like they say, find a tractor. I found a MF 135 diesel and 14 pieces of equipment. An old farmer was banned from his tractor by his doc when he started to have dizzy spells. I had to buy all, he wouldn' t sell part. My only addition was a 5 foot PTO tiller. Cost 2500 bucks, new, but worth every cent. Gardens, fields and food plots. It goes slow, but usually one pass does it all. I discovered one advantage, the tiller actually will push the tractor through swampy ground where it is impossible to go with a disc.
If I had a big enough tractor, The Rice farmers in East Arkansas near Memphis sold a bunch of 8 foor tillers at auction and they went cheap. They used them in their Rice paddies. Requires a 60hp. tractor to work one of those.
