Precision has data to show you everything pays.

The thing to think about is what kind of conditions you are planting in. If you are planting into garden conditions all the time there will be very little opportunity to see a response from precision products. If you notill or plant in variable conditions the higher the likelihood of a payback.

I'm notill and personally wouldn't run a planter without deltaforce anymore. Vdrive accomplishes shutoff and instant population changes so you need to ask yourself how much value those have. If you have uniform soils and square fields there wouldn't be much value. I love clean sweep but sure wouldn't be necessary in all conditions.
