He'd be getting a lot more than better singulation with that $ 73k. IIRC the OP didn't ask for your opinion on what he should get. Pretty sure he was strictly asking for a ballpark figure.
IIRC then you better go back to every poster on this topic that is telling him its a lot of money, or planter faster is not helping the quality of the stand.
its ok go give your PP stuff a big hug and remind yourself its all good.
this is a forum for discussion. he asked about prices and I gave my opinion on prices or more so the lack of value of the dollar being spent.
deere, raven, agleader all make a better monitor then the 20/20.
ASM on a deere planter and an operator who is willing to correct issues showing up will get very good stand without spending big money.
like I said on $3 corn you need to watch your spending, but on 100$ seed costs a guy can save some money by improving things. cant imagine a 24 row without row clutches? that would be the biggest return on the dollar.
by the way I have v set meters on my planter and I like them. but if I had a new planter of any color there is no way I would spend the money on aftermarket meters. don't see it ever paying back.
by dropping the mph a little to get better stand then you are getting paid to drive slower. maybe don't try to farm the county and do a better job with less.
