Yes, but any drill can do close to a brillion if you cultipack the soil before the grain drill, take the tubes off and drop the seed on the surface, then cultipack it again, even better cultipack twice after seeding



We tried that with some grass and clover seed… it worked but not what I would try with alfalfa.


I know there are plenty of guys that seed alfalfa with drills but for us that’s not gonna be an option. All the coops rent a brillion seeder… alfalfa is expensive to seed.. so its better to do it right the first time with a brillion. All small grains go through the drill. We are in the land of rocks so a pass before and after seeding with a land roller is highly recommended
