I got my tractor out today and did a bunch of dirt work since the ground is finally drying out here in Maine.

2017 JD 3046R.  This thing is a BEAST!  It is kind of amazing the amount of work you can do with a small tractor.  I love it.  

After I finished I had to wash her up, and of course take pics.

Enough doom and gloom for a while, show off your tractors.

Enjoy your life OP!!! Looks good to me. I'm on the mini chainsaw, CanAM and mower trimming up the "edges" so I can scream around on the Zturn without poking an eye out.

Wash? WTF?  The most I have ever done in 20 years in rinse of the layers of dust and pollen after mowing the fields.

I just had to pull mine out on Friday. No I didn't wash it when I was done. I did drive it through the creek to get some of the mud off.

None of the above are what I'd consider a small tractor.

But my eastern yard is about as muddy as the pic above. If I don't catch a break soon I'm going to have to mow it with a brush hog instead of the mower deck.

Got all the manure washed off from feeding to transition to hay. Got some ground plowed/disced and planted with alfalfa this weekend too. Always good to get done feeding and get cleaned up.

Stacking dead mesquites and downed oaks.  Spend a day stacking, wait for rain, and burn.  Today was a burn day.  

I would estimate 40 tons burned YTD.  But, that's going to slow way down.  Getting a bit to warm to be reaching under logs to attach choker chains.

We are just the bad influence you need to peer pressure you into buying a new tractor. Seriously take a look at current auction prices. Used compacts are selling at some crazy low prices. New prices are sky high but used has some great deals.

Looks good op !


Iv been hauling manure i got for free from my neighbors manure pile 1.5 miles away to our farm , hauled 30 tons on my 16' trailer, now I'm hauling another 30 tons with the manure spreader . I'm using my kubota L3901, which is a little small for hauling approx 4 tons of trailer / manure.

After this I'll be drilling post holes, digging  up about 5 tons of farm dirt / mixing farm dirt with manure to haul back to the house to fill my raised beds,
