If I had to plow 50 acres I would want something over 100 HP with dual wheels and a big 5 to 10 bottom plow. Think big and you won't be out there all day playing in the field. A nice Case IH 450 quad tract will only run around $300,000 new maybe $200,000 or a little less used and will sure make it an easy job On top of that you can do work for others in the neighborhood. But i thing a good used IH 1066 to a 1466 will give you plenty of power and won't cost an arm an a leg. My friend has a nice 1066 that he pulls a very big 5 bottom plow with can do 5 acres in less than an hour. Go see what your new neighbors are using an talk to those who are actually farming the plae not playing farmer. Walt
