Hey I live in Jamaica and looking to buy a farm tractor to use on my 11 acres of sugar cane land and about 2.5 others crops(banana/plantains,ground crops and vegatables). I would be nice to have backhoe capability while staying under 2200 kg(pickup max tow 3500 kg - plus trailor weight).

Terrain
The terrain on the smaller farm is mainly tropical bauxite red dirt-clay with soft lime stone rocks.

The sugar cane land is thick black clay. It was originally a part of river system morass but was drained back in the day. Its ideal for growing crops like sugar cane because of its sea level, canals provide water almost year round and is nutrient rich because of river sedimentation. In the dry season(yup rain shadow) the clay will become extremely dry and cracky. I assume this will require alot of POWER?
