The Cockshutt 1550 and the Cockshutt 1600 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Cockshutt 1600 leads on rated power with 58 hp against 54 hp. Cockshutt 1550 is the lighter machine (3,175 kg vs 3,356 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
