| Soy bean seed don't have a reputation for growing well a year after the year they were sold for. Corn can go out to ten years.
If they are treated and you can't plant them as a cover crop or find someone to use them as a cover crop, they can't be put into the soy bean as feed market, and the seed dealer might not want them 10 weeks from now maybe not even this week. The only approved place is the incinerator at considerable cost and complete loss of value.
As a cover crop, they might not need to be planted, just spread on top and the next heavy rain would make them sprout and grow. A spinner fertilizer spreader would need fewer passes and tracks across the field and less ground contact than a planter or drill.
