Sorry, no help here at all. Don't have a quad or a tractor.  I use a
Cousin - who brings his tractor when needed ;)
I don't know if a quad is going to tear up your ground any less than a
tractor would. It would need a set of very wide wheels to spread its
weight over soft ground, I would think. Same with your poo trailer.
Sorry :(

Quads are *much* lighter than tractors and I think they give lower pressures 
under the tyres and are reckoned to be useable without causing damage in 
much boggier conditions. That's what one of my field maintenance books says, 
anyway.

You need to distinguish between the "big boys toys" quad bikes, and the 
proper 4 WD agricultural ones; the toys have narrow tyres.
