Hi Liz - I too have come to love old rotten hay. Our hay farming neighbor up the road brings me old rotten bales and I spread them everywhere. I've even knocked back some bermuda grass with a very thick blanket of it -

Here is the link to the Howard Rotavator. http://www.howardrotavator.com We
shopped for more than two years before deciding on a Howard.  We are
running
a 90" HR35 in pasture behind a 60hp tractor.  The earlier post of 3/4hp per
inch is pretty close.  Our 60hp is just barely enough in tight sod, but it
sure does the job.

The Howard Rotavators are much stronger build than the Kubota, KingKutter,
and Woods tillers and have some design features that allow more versatility
in tilling.  Short of a head sized boulder, the tiller can be set to throw
any stones to the surface for picking or raking as well as laying the cut
sod on the surface for drying before seed bed preparation.

For the people that were wanting a tiller this is the best tiller on the
market. Is low price and made very well. Will also tell you how much HP is
required for each size tiller. We have had no trouble with ours. Bill
