Get a nice set of row cleaners, no coulters. Make sure you have proper downforce, in no till too much is better than not enough. Idk what kinze will do, but Deere HD spring downforce will do like 330 lbs plus weight of row unit.

For 100 acres, the fancy stuff is not needed, unless your current systems are not adequate. Getting out and digging every 10 acres and making adjustments would be next on the list.

I do as much no till as possible, air adjust row cleaners, hydraulic downforce, spike closings wheels, and a good meter are on my current planter, but I cover quite a few acres per row. My previous planter was pin adjust row cleaners, HD spring downforce, esets, and rubber closing wheels, it raised competitive yields but I had to make adjustments as needed.
