You bring up a good point about the duty cycle of an engine. (I alluded to that point in my earlier post.) That being said, the OP asked about power as a measure of tractor capability. In that regard, power is still the right measure of power unit capability.

Given similar durabilities, power is the only way to establish the rate of work that a vehicle can do. A 50hp tractor can do work at 1/2 the rate of a 100hp tractor.

Durability is another question.
