HI and my 2 cents, I don't farm it but use an M for heavy stuff and 300&350 U's for general stuff. The bigger machine will burn more gas, the M figure about 2 1/2 gal an hour when really working. Somebody else can tell you how many acres per hour that would be per machine. You have no electricity, so battery charging should be discussed. 6 volt or 12. You can get the solar panels cheap 'nuff to charge and run a few lights at camp, but I have never seen one in 6 volt. I run my M on magneto only. I keep it well maintained and it's 2 or 3 pulls on the crank to start a cold engine. No generator, voltage regulator, or starter and it's very reliable. You'll probably want hydraulics of some kind and the older machines are less likely to have "live" systems. If you see fresh paint, look deeper.
