Farmall 130 vs Farmall HV

Verdict: Farmall 130 vs Farmall HV

The Farmall 130 and the Farmall HV are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Farmall 130 leads on rated power with 20 hp against 19 hp. Farmall 130 is the lighter machine (1,270 kg vs 2,165 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Farmall 130 is the newer design (1956 vs 1942). In short: choose the Farmall 130 for outright pulling power, or the Farmall HV if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
