Subject: RE: 4 and 6 row planters, how many acres?


Eastern Half of Kansas		We planted 700 acres corn/beans for 3 years with a 6RN before going to 8 row.

I have a friend that is currently planting 550-600 acres annually corn/milo/beans with 6RN, running liquid, is 80% conventional til, no extra helping working ground, and is working in town 3-12's and 4-12's alternating weeks. You can get 20 acres planted from 8:00 on at night and 60 acres on a full day.

10-20 years ago there was plenty of people planting up to 1,000 acres, some more every year with a 6 row, problem is now, no one wants to spend butt time in seat.
