[AT] different type of tractor question

[Claude Kyker]

There are organizations out there that they’re so purpose is to assist disabled farmers. A quick Google search turned up this one in Georgia:  http://www.farmagain.com/farmingiwthdisability.html
Maybe a search would turn up  something in you state or perhaps there is also a national organization. 
A similar organization always had a booth at the national farm machinery show in Louisville Kentucky when I used to attend the shows there.

Does anyone know if their is a company that makes some kind of kit that would allow someone like him to change it to a hand controlled clutch? He likes the tractor but without that leg cannot drive it.
