NE SD | Pretty simple really. When you no-till in our northern soils........you hadn't better be running past midnight or so or you start to do an inferior job planting- hairpinning stalks, etc. Best bet is to start out running 14 hours a day or so. Moreso, depends on what acres you have. If we were in a position similar to the one you described, the bigger planter would still have to be the way to go because of labor. There's usually enough other stuff going on that everybody is busy. I don't know about you, but most guys need at least 5-6 hours of sleep every day- if nothing else just for safty reasons. I know I'm not going to run it for a week without stopping. Mark pretty well put it into terms....when things start to get hairy you need to be able to cover serious ground. | |
