Forget price. What does it need to be able to do? IMO the smallest capacity skid loader for farmer needs to be able to lift a ton. Lots of feeds, seeds, spray pallets weigh at least a ton.
I bought a Gehl 4840. IIRC with weights it barely qualifies. It has plenty power, just gets tippy. If load *out there*. So 4 bags from far side moved close to keep 4 wheels on ground.
Bulk is sketchy… so I bring trailer to seed place, they load, I use, return empties.
Realize your needs. If it’s too small you will break stuff, get hurt, have to sell…
