Case IH Farmall 50C flail mowers: FM2584 only on engine power

Land Pride rates FM2584 from 49 hp without a basis; the 50C’s 50-hp engine clears it by 1, and its 42.5 and 40.0 PTO hp do not. WoodMaxx FM-62 and FM-78, Farmer-Helper FH-EFGC, TMG and Land Pride FM2560 and FM2572 fit with room.

Engine or PTO for FM2584

Land Pride’s FM25 lists 49–80 hp without naming the basis. On engine power the 50C qualifies by 1 hp; on PTO power it is well short. Ask Land Pride before choosing the 84-inch width. The comparison below sets FM2584 against FM-62.

FM2572 on the HST

FM2572 starts at 42 hp. The gear 50C clears it on either figure; the HST only on engine power.

LFP47’s 45

Farmry rates LFP47 at 25–45 hp. Both PTO figures are inside; the 50-hp engine is 5 over.

Lift

Every mower here is under New Holland’s 2,116 lb at 24 inches for the matching Boomer 50.

Farmry HFS87: 87-inch cut, Category I and II

Farmry rates the HFS87 at 30–85 hp without saying whether that is PTO or engine power, lists Category I and II, cuts 87 inches and weighs 1,299 lb with the shaft. The Case IH Farmall 50C’s 42.5 / 40 PTO hp and 50 engine hp are both inside that range, so the basis does not change the result. Its published lift at 24 inches, 2,756 lb, carries that weight with 1,457 lb to spare; check front ballast all the same. Its gearbox rating, 50 hp, is not below this tractor’s PTO power. The 87-inch cut is 3 inches wider than Land Pride’s FM2584. Farmry’s page listed it at $4,499 on November 14, 2026.

Farmer-Helper FH-EF standard-duty mowers

Farmer-Helper rates its standard-duty FH-EF mowers by PTO power, all to 45 PTO hp with a 45-hp gearbox: the EF95 (37-inch cut) from 15, the EF105 (41-inch) from 16 and the EF125 (48-inch) from 20. They carry Y-blades for grass and light brush. The Case IH Farmall 50C’s 42.5 / 40 PTO hp is inside all three, 2.5 under the ceiling. Its published lift at 24 inches, 2,756 lb, carries even the 390-lb EF125 with 2,366 lb to spare. This tractor has the power for heavier mowers; the FH-EF line suits grass and light growth, not thick brush. Betstco listed them at $1,462, $1,547 and $1,632 on November 14, 2026, with the PTO shaft included.
