That is a nice looking planter. How many row is it? Looks like a 16 row, but It's hard to tell.
my goodness, what a planter . Cut your time in half doesn't . How many areas can you plant a day.?



Colin, yeah it's 16. Sure beats the old 12 row. ;)
Betty, The best I've got so far is 80 acres in a day. Buy the time I get everything ready the days half over :roll:

That is a lot of corn to plant . Would like to see one of those work. I am an old farm girl still at heart.

I bet. Our new neighbor just upgraded to a 16 row planter from an 8 row planter. How many acres do farm?

Love faming life. Thanks bruce for being so nice .



If you change your mind, I got a comfy lawn chair for you to set in. :D
Bruce, just curious but how fast do you pull the planter? I can see why it takes so long to prepare to plant.

Congrats on the new planter Bruce, looks like a nice unit :D
Betty, No, the much needed rains caught me. One more day ought to do it when it dries out.
Thanks JJ. :D
