Another question I’ll add to what others have already asked: how much time do you have available to work on the property? If you can work there as much as you want, smaller equipment might be ok. But if you intend to manage 15 acres of plots on a random weekend getaway, you are going to want as big as you can afford.
I plant 20 acres on one of my properties and it takes me one full day usually to get 10 acres planted. That’s assuming everything goes exactly perfectly and Mother Nature cooperates. I have a 75 hp tractor, 7’ no till drill, and 15’ sprayer.
Time is my limiting factor. If it’s yours and you are serious about planting plots, get a no till drill. You won’t be sorry.
