Tractors are the backbone of any agricultural or construction operation, but the tractor itself is only part of the equation. You’ll need attachments and a few other items in order to make full use of your tool. We here at Mike Cooper Tractors want to help you get as much from your tractor as possible, so we’ve put together a brief guide to getting the right tractor package below.

The Benefits Of Tractor Packages

First, you might be wondering why you should bother with this extra step. The first and most important benefit is the money you’ll save in the process. The right tractor package can save you big time by buying the tractor and all the attachments and accessories you need for it together. If you’re new to farming, it can also help you make sure you get all the items you need to get started. Heading back and forth from your preferred dealer to get pieces you forgot or didn’t know you needed is more than a hassle—it's a temptation! The more time you spend at the store, the easier it is to buy extras that you may not really need at the time.

The Attachments You’ll Need

Before you buy anything, you’ll want to think about the types of attachments and features you’ll need on your tractor, from implements and attachments to accessories and trailers. Just consider the type of work you’ll be doing with the tractor and you’ll be able to come up with a few necessities in no time. 

Once you’ve got a firm list, select a package that has the tools you’re going to use most frequently. If a tractor package looks close to perfect but is missing an item that you desperately need, feel free to talk to the salesperson you’re dealing with to try and add the item to the package to make it right for you.

Can You Afford It?

While a tractor package can save you a lot of cash in the long run, it does have a higher upfront cost than just buying the tractor by itself. It’s important to come up with a firm budget before the purchase process to see if you can afford the larger expenditure. That way you’ll only consider packages you can reasonably afford. When you get to the buying process, make sure to ask lots of questions of any salesperson you work with to find a package that balances value and affordability.
