Whether managing 5,000 acres or five, Americans understand the value of sub compact tractors. Loosely categorized as having two- to three-cylinder diesel engines with 15 to 25 horsepower, as opposed to compact tractors with three- to four-cylinder engines up to 45 horsepower, the sub compact tractor is a popular for good reason. All the versatility of a larger tractor on a smaller frame, these offer a three-point hitch and four-wheel drive and can carry weight greater than their own while pushing and pulling several times more. Most folks see them as valuable for mowing, as they don’t leave near the tracks that a larger, heavier machine would. But professional gardeners and landscapers have also found them perfect for hauling material, as well as sprayers and aerators.
