Latimer, Iowa (north central) | Thanks, Cattle definitely had fun out there. It’s fun seeing them graze every morning too.
I am a bit old school on the planter I guess. Still subscribe to the driving slower with a wider planter than the high speed planting trend. Generally set it between 5-5.5 mph. Especially with no-till on everything, if I push speeds at all over 6 mph, my ride quality suffers and downforce doesn’t have time to react. Delta force adjusts something like 10 times a second, supposedly, but you still are traveling several feet in that tenth of a second so that’s several feet of incorrect downforce, exasperated by speed. |
