The plow in your Craigslist link will do a good job in clay and not as prone to being damaged by stumps as moldboard and chisel plows. I've found those type plows don't require near as much horsepower as moldboard. I very much dis-agree with what most everyone said about waiting a few yeras before planting. Quick as it's plowed up and level,I'd plant it then graze it while getting it in condition to bale hay on. If it's plowed up between now and November,I'd plant a winter pasture seed mix,Arrowhead clover,rye or such that can be grazed in a few months. If it isn't plowed up until after January,I'd sod Coastal or native Bermuda then graze it as you continue getting ground in top condition. In either case,pull soil samples and amend as reccomended. Also be ready to spray broadleaf tree sprouts as soon as they appear. If fences will hold goats and sheep,rotating them would be better than cattle the first year but cattle will be fine if not alowed to over graze. All that is assuming you don't plan to have Alfalfa in which case the program will be much different.

We bought a small 'farm' of about 50 acres near Bendigo, in the state of Victoria. I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
