West Kentucky
I hope a 1790 is since we just bought one. We have ran various kinze 15" planters over the last 20 years or so. We plant double cropped beans here behind wheat and the ground has a tendency to get hard. The kinze always did a fair job, but tends to have trouble keeping the wings in the ground consistantly in these conditions. We built weight brackets for each wing and that did help. Last year, I looked at a lot of different beans planted by various planters under these conditions. There was no doubt that the 1790 did a better job "last year" no matter which farmer's field I looked at. So, we went with the 1790. Now I just hope I made the right decision.
