    Liquefied Petroleum Gas, refueling classic tractor, educate me

    harvest or thresh hemp for seed, what machines will work?

    I have heard AC AllCrops are great machines, yeah. Canvas pickup likely preferred over augur feed? Stems would surely wrap the auger feed?

    Case 5140 - park brake out,safety?

    Mower suggestions, maintain 20 acres prairie

    Thanks for the info on the Brillion. My field is 20 acres, and mowing it in a single day would be ideal. Sickles from what I read perhaps only height adjust from say 4-6 inches, if that.
