Stud Workhorse

 

The picture shows the stud workshorse.

It is a John Deere 455 garden tractor powered by a diesel engine. It can easily pull the one tonne trailer, which is used to more things like feed and fencing around the farm.


The advantages are less damage to the ground due to the low ground pressure, ease of getting on and off to attend to stock and very low fuel consumption.

The disadvantage is that you get wet when it rains.

Low pressure vehicles like these are a much better bet for working on the land in many cases than to use expensive 4x4 vehicles, which may be more comfortable, but do much more damage to the land.
